Turkey’s foreign minister accuses the French president of financing terrorism

Turkey’s foreign minister has accused French President Emmanuel Macron of being a “sponsor of terrorism”, dismissing the French leader’s criticism of Turkey"s Syria offensive.
Mevlut Cavusoglu told reporters that Macron wanted to be the leader of Europe but was “wobbling”.
Last month French President angered Turkey by hosting an official from the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces. Turkey views a section of the group - the YPG - as terrorists.
The spat between Turkey and France comes in the week before the two NATO allies are due to attend a summit of the alliance in the UK.
