Turkey ‘Planning More Rallies in Germany’ despite Row

Turkey is planning more rallies in Germany ahead of a crunch referendum in April, its foreign minister said Thursday, despite an acrimonious row with Berlin after local authorities banned several campaign events.


Mevlut Cavusoglu said he had already handed a list of the planned rallies to his German counterpart Sigmar Gabriel.

“We expect Germany to solve this problem. We are planning around 30 rallies. We had informed German authorities of them all,” said the minister in quotes carried by private CNN-Turk television.

Turkey and Germany have been at loggerheads this week after local authorities blocked several rallies by Turkish ministers.
