Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan rowed back from his threat to expel 10 Western envoys over their joint statement of support for a jailed civil society leader.
The reversal came after the United States and several of the other concerned countries issued identical statements saying they respected a UN convention that required diplomats not to interfere in the host country’s domestic affairs.
He concluded the meeting by victoriously announcing in televised comments that the 10 ambassadors had learnt their lesson and will be more careful now.
The new Western statement shows they have taken a step back from the slander against the country.
