ANKARA (AA) – The Turkish deputy prime minister on Saturday commented on possible “assassination threats ” against President Recep Tayyip Erdogan during his visit to Bosnia on Sunday.
Bekir Bozdag tweeted: “We are aware that there are circles who are discomforted by such a great leader, a man with a cause, and that they want to get rid of our president. These warnings of assassination threats are not new, always been there.
“Recep Tayyip Erdogan is not a man who would be afraid of death threats, turn away from his path and his cause. ”
Bozdag's remarks came following claims of possible death threats against the Turkish president during his official visit to Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Erdogan will hold bilateral and inter-delegation talks with Bakir Izetbegovic, the Bosniak member of the tripartite Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina, during his visit, according to a statement by the presidential press office.
