A New Scandal in Turkish-German Relations: German Ambassador Summoned to Turkish MFA
Turkey has summoned the German ambassador in Ankara to protest against the cancellation of a public speech by a Turkish minister in a German town, BBC reports.
Justice Minister Bekir Bozdag had been due to address expatriates in Gaggenau in support of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's controversial reforms.
But local authorities withdrew permission for the rally, saying the planned venue was not big enough.
