- British Consul General in Istanbul has brought the wrath of the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on the neck. Leigh Turner took last week a photo of themselves and Can Dündar, one of the two Turkish journalists who are currently on trial for espionage.
Dündar Erdem Gül and his colleagues reported last year on a weapons delivery to Syrian rebels, who would be helped by Turkey. In addition, they published a video in which trucks could be seen where the weapons would sit. Erdogan was furious. He accused the journalists of spying and insisted personally on trial.
