This is what triggered the unrest against Erdogan in the first place and triggered the accusations of corruption against him and his son over the construction contracts....it is almost a slap in the face of a strong democratic and young fairly large secular minority against Erdogan and will provoke long term a lash back in some form....
Istanbul Mayor: We will re-build old military barracks over Gezi Park. Our President already stated it clearly. https://twitter.com/Hurriyet/status/758913556691587072 …
US spox Kirby says US has no info re Turkish ministers announced visit to DC for Gulen extradition.
Confirms early reprts they may not come.
Some say Erdogan really does not want him inside Turkey as it is better to keep him the "enemy" but at a far distance as they really do not know the strength of his following inside Turkey that is way they are rounding up anyone they think might somehow be tied to him....

Ambo of Turkey: Massive detentions are due to exceptional threat & large network of ppl involved in plotting the coup

How come Radio Sputnik did not lose its FM license in Turkey during the recent Russia-Turkey "cold war" ?
How come Radio Sputnik broadcasts on FM in Turkey, yet not a single NATO-country radio station is licensed there?
