Turkey is still very provocative, despite the storm of reactions to the decision of Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s government to convert Hagia Sophia into a mosque, just days before the Friday prayer.
This time the baton was taken by the always provocative leader of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), Devlet Bahçeli, who, according to Turkish media reports, bought and wears a ring with a relief design of Hagia Sophia.
The MHP chairman’s post comes shortly after his written statement stating: “We do not even pay attention to blackmail and attacks, especially by the US and the EU, against our just expectations for the opening of Hagia Sophia as a mosque in worship and our sovereign rights.”
