QR-11, 5 March 2019, Statement of the Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Hami Aksoy, in Response to a Question Regarding Baseless Allegations in the German Media

Republic Of Türkiye Ministry Of Foreign Affairs 06.03.2019

In some German media outlets, unfounded reports have been aired about possible mistreatment of Germans traveling to Turkey.

Needless to say, these news do not reflect the truth. Clearly, the statements of our Minister of Interior with regard to the fight against terrorism were deliberately taken out of context and distorted.

As always, Turkey will continue to welcome tourists from Germany and all other countries with traditional Turkish hospitality.
