Turkey's Erdogan says foreign investors have appetite towards Turkish economy

Turkey's medium term economic programme, announced earlier this month, has garnered appetite among foreign investors, President Tayyip Erdogan said on his way back from the U.N. General Assembly in New York.

"A crucial pillar of our program is attracting foreign investment to our country. Just preparing and announcing the program has already generated appetite among foreign investors," Erdogan said.

"By harnessing this momentum, we will quickly move towards our goals."
