The information that Turkey plans to introduce a visa regime with the 89 countries doesn't correspond to reality, Minister for the EU Affairs of Turkey Volkan Bozkir told, Anadolu agency reported.
"We strive to ensure that our citizens from October 2016 can attend the Schengen area without a visa, and continue to work in this direction. This information doesn't correspond to reality. People should trust the statements of the competent authorities", Bozkir said.
