Presidential Communications Director Fahrettin Altun and Presidential Spokesperson İbrahim Kalın reacted strongly to the French humor magazine Charlie Hebdo’s cartoon directed at President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. “Everyone with common sense should condemn and reject this disgusting publication,” Kalin said.

Fahrettin Altun said that President Recep Tayyip Erdogan was attacked and that Erdogan would continue to be the voice of global conscience.

Stating that Charlie Hebdo does not respect any beliefs, sacred or valuable, İbrahim Kalın said they condemned the publication of the French magazine about President Erdogan.

The Vice Minister of Culture and Tourism Serdar Çam reacted to the cartoon by cursing in French on his Twitter account.

Cartoon reaction

Charlie Hebdo promoted his new number on his Twitter account on Tuesday.

He divided the cover of the magazine into cartoons directed at Erdogan.

Erdogan and a veiled woman serving wine are depicted half-naked in the cartoon.

The title of the cartoon includes the expression “Erdogan is actually a funny person in his private life.”

In France, on October 16, a teacher named Samuel Paty, who showed cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad to his students in class, was beheaded.

The statements made by French President Emmanuel Macron after the assassination and the reflections of the cartoons on the walls of the country’s buildings provoked a reaction in the Islamic world.

French products began to be boycotted in many countries, including Qatar, Kuwait, Algeria, Sudan, Jordan, Morocco, and Lebanon.

President Recep Tayip Erdogan called for a boycott on Monday, saying “Never congratulate French brands, don’t accept them.”

The cartoons in question were first published by Charlie Hebdo in 2015.

Twelve people were killed in the attack on the Charlie Hebdo headquarters in Paris that same year.
