Erdogan slams Charlie Hebdo's "provocative publications"

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan slammed the "provocative" publications released by Charlie Hebdo, accused the French weekly of fomenting hatred and racism.

"This is not called freedom. This equates to wreaking terror by intervening in the freedom space of others. We should be aware of this. There is no limitless freedom," he said.

"They may be atheists. If they are, they will respect what is sacred to me," said Erdogan.
