Erdoğan fans burn French flag, and attempted to lynch a journalist

Erdoğan fans burn French flag, attack Norwegian journalist mistaking for ‘Dutch’

A group of protesters in the Black Sea province of Samsun have burned a French flag as they mistook it for the Dutch flag after the eruption of a diplomatic crisis between Turkey and the Netherlands due to the latter’s refusal to allow two Turkish ministers to hold campaign rallies in the country.

Turkish news outlets reported on Sunday that the protesters in Samsun burned a Dutch flag after reciting the Turkish national anthem and unfurling Turkish flags in a sign of protest against the Netherlands. However, video footage and photos released by the news agencies showed that the protesters in fact burned a French flag.

The national flag of France is a tricolor flag featuring three vertical bands colored blue, white, and red. The national flag of the Netherlands is also a tricolor flag. The horizontal fesses are bands of equal size in the colors, from top to bottom, red, white and blue.

Meanwhile, an Erdoğanist group has harassed a Norwegian journalist in İstanbul as they mistook him for Dutch journalist. It is reported in Turkish media that a Norwegian journalist was covering a protest of academic Nazife Onay, who demands to return to her job after dismissal with a statutory decree issued by the government under the state of emergency.

First, academic Onay was targeted by an Erdoğan supporter from among those who set up a tent nearby to run a ‘Yes’ campaign for the upcoming referendum. Erdoğan supporter tried to seize the banner Onay unfurled for her protest, which read “We will not allow the AKP fascism to usurp our rights.” Police intervened the scene, removed the assailant from the site and detained the academician.

Erdoğanist group also obstructed journalists covering the incident and attempted to lynch a journalist from Norway mistaking him for a ‘Dutch journalist.’

The mob also attacked female journalists who tried to prevent the lynching attempt. Pro-Erdoğan mob threatened Norwegian journalist by saying “You are working for the Netherlands. I have recorded all of you. You will pay for it.” Turkish police did not intervene the group and just watched as they harassed the journalist.

A crisis erupted between Turkey and the Netherlands when The Hague canceled the flight clearance for Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu’s airplane on Saturday shortly after Çavuşoğlu warned that Turkey would impose “harsh sanctions” on Holland if it were to take such a step.

Çavuşoğlu was scheduled to fly to Rotterdam for a campaign rally.
