Turkey was introduced to the phrase “terror cocktail” in the first television appearance of Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu after the Oct. 10 bomb attack in Ankara.
“[The attack was] an attempt to prevent the AKP [Justice and Development Party] from becoming the single ruling party, to influence the outcome of the election,” Davutoglu said. “It is clear that someone is blending all terror organizations in what I call the terror cocktail, to carry out operations.”
