Berlin-Ankara Rift Deepens
from Big bad wolf bedtime story Hosted by Ewanthomas
In a deepening rift, Turkey has told Germany that their relations cannot be based on blackmail and threats. The Turkish foreign ministry accused the German foreign minister, Sigmar Gabriel, of having a one-sided and distorted approach to their relations. Mr Gabriel earlier announced measures against Turkey in an escalating row over recent arrests of German nationals by the Turkish authorities. And later in the programme: OJ Simpson - the disgraced former American footballer and actor - gets parole. And an assessment of US President Donald Trump's first six months in office.
