Turkish Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu accused US ambassador Jeffry Flake of trying to\u00a0\u201cconfuse\u201d<\/em>\u00a0people in the host nation and told him to get his\u00a0\u201cfilthy hands\u201d<\/em>\u00a0off the country. He has previously claimed that Western nations were waging\u00a0\u201cpsychological warfare\u201d<\/em>\u00a0to undermine tourism in T\u00fcrkiye.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m telling you very clearly, get your filthy hands off T\u00fcrkiye. I know clearly what you have done, what steps you have taken, and how you want to confuse T\u00fcrkiye,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0the minister said in a speech on Friday.<\/p>\n

Soylu claimed the first questions\u00a0\u201cevery US ambassador\u201d<\/em>\u00a0arriving in T\u00fcrkiye was asked were\u00a0\u201cHow can I stage a coup\u201d<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0\u201cHow can I harm T\u00fcrkiye.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0The minister also stated that European nations were\u00a0\u201crun\u201d<\/em>\u00a0by American diplomats.<\/p>\n

The remarks came a day after the US and several EU nations decided to temporarily shut down their consulates in Istanbul due to\u00a0\u201csecurity considerations.\u201d<\/em> The foreign governments also advised their citizens to avoid tourist hotspots in T\u00fcrkiye, citing a terrorist threat.<\/p>\n

Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said the nations involved failed to convey to Ankara any evidence that would justify the shutdowns.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey tell us, \u2018We have concrete information, there\u2019s a threat. That\u2019s why we\u2019re closing\u2019. Who did it come from? Where? Who will do it? There\u2019s no information about that,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0Cavusoglu said on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The top diplomat described the move as\u00a0\u201cdeliberate\u201d<\/em>\u00a0and possibly designed to put the incumbent government into a\u00a0\u201cdifficult situation\u201d<\/em>\u00a0before the upcoming general elections.<\/p>\n

Soylu added that Western governments actually reacted with\u00a0\u201cpsychological warfare\u201d<\/em>\u00a0to Turkish plans to boost tourism in the country.<\/p>\n

The Friday event in Antalya, during which the interior minister blasted the US ambassador, was dedicated to migration issues.<\/p>\n

In his speech, Soylu accused Western nations of aggravating the problem that Ankara faces due to mass migration. In particular, he expressed concern with instability in the neighboring nations of Iraq and Syria, where\u00a0\u201cstate authority has completely disappeared,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0according to the minister.<\/p>\n
