Speaking at a referendum rally in Istanbul just hours after the Hague denied landing permission to Cavusoglu, Erdogan said

“They are the vestiges of the Nazis, they are fascists. Ban our foreign minister from flying however much you like, but from now on let’s see how your flights will land in Turkey.”

Erdogan accused the Netherlands of working against the “Yes” campaign and said also:

“Pressure however much you like. Abet terrorists in your country however much you like. It will backlash, and there’s no doubt that we’ll start retaliating after April 16… We are patient. Whoever is patient will reach victory.”
