Censuring Turks, Israel says it ‘won”t tolerate’ ill treatment of diplomats
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleIsrael’s Foreign Ministry says it “won’t tolerate” diplomats being treated the way its expelled ambassador to Turkey was early Wednesday, after Eitan Na’eh was thoroughly patted down during a security check at Istanbul airport before boarding a plane back to Israel.
“This behavior is a blatant violation of the customary diplomatic behavior code between countries,” spokesman Emmanual Nahshon adds, after Turkey’s charge d’ affairs was brought in for a dressing down and subjected to his own security check. “That stance has also been directly clarified to authorities in Ankara.”
