USA: Upset Erdogan returns to Turkey
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who was to attend the funeral of Mohamed Ali, decided to cut short his stay in Louisville (Kentucky, central USA), annoyed by the reception accorded to him by the organizers, said the Turkish media.
The organizers had already refused Erdogan before his visit, to take the floor at the ceremony to be held today.
The powerful man in Turkey, who is accompanied by his son-in Berat Albayrak, who is Minister of Energy, participated on Thursday in the wake of the Muhammad Ali and then suddenly decided to shorten his stay, which was originally to be extended until tonight.
According to the newspaper Hurriyet Daily News, which cites sources at the presidential office, Erdogan was annoyed particularly because it was not allowed to deposit in the coffin of the boxer a black cloth decorated with verses from the Koran, the Kisoua covering the Kaaba, the cubic structure in the center of the great mosque of Mecca.
