Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and Director for EU Affairs Ambassador Faruk KAYMAKÇI:
“Who gets much more information, the one who reads a lot or the one who travels a lot? Of course the ones who participate in Erasmus! Erasmus students both read a lot and at the same time travel a lot.
The Director of the EU Education and Youth Programmes İlker ASTARCI:
