On Sunday the retired first islamic prime minister of Turkey, Necmettin Erbakan, died in Ankara. The actual Turkish PM will return earlier from Germany for the funerals of his mentor. The head of Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas, Khaled Meshaal, will attend the funeral too.
Erbakan was forced in 1997 to step back as PM by the army. Later he was convicted to prison because of fraud (but let’s remember, that people like Helmut Kohl or Otto Graf Lambsdorff hided millions too), then pardoned by our actual President, Abdullah Gül.
Hamas boss did not come....
ReplyDeleteGerman foreign minister zu Guttenberg stepped back, because he cheated on his thesis. I am glad about it. But Erbakan wouldn't mind of such peanuts, would he?
