Turkish leader Tayyip Erdogan asked his compatriots to stop buying French goods in the latest expression of anger in the Muslim world over images being displayed in France of the Prophet Mohammad

In Bangladesh on Monday, protesters held placards with a caricature of French President Emmanuel Macron and the words: “Macron is the enemy of peace”, while Pakistan’s parliament passed a resolution urging the government to recall its envoy from Paris.

In Saudi Arabia, calls for a boycott of French supermarket chain Carrefour were trending on social media, though two stores Reuters visited in the Saudi capital on Monday seemed as busy as normal. A company representative in France said it had yet to feel any impact.

Since the beheading, the caricatures have been projected onto a building in one city and people displayed them at protests around the country. Macron said he would redouble efforts to stop conservative Islamic beliefs subverting French values. Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tweeted that insulting Muslims is an “opportunistic abuse of freedom of speech. It only fuels extremism.”

Macron on Monday met representatives of France’s Muslim community. The meeting was behind closed doors and the Elysee Palace gave no detailed information on what was discussed.

Maybe we should boycott all the muslim asylum seekers running away from brutal muslim countries ?

But it is France is importing more than exports to Turkey.

Erdogan show some spine to raise the Uighur muslim genocide in China. Slave pakistan has no guts 2 speak....why u r not caring fr them or only interested in politics not touchin real issues of muslim brothers

That was simple provocation, I can't believe Erdogan did buy this, it was clearly obviously stupid provocation, to start conflict, I hope he will acknowledge it and it's no gonna be worst, but Makron is an asshole,

😳

. = hey see this dot? That’s my cartoon depiction of the Prophet Mohammad. If you don’t like it, you know where you can shove it.

and turn a blind eye on China as the CCP regime treats Muslims like slaves there.

Good step.

Send all Islamic refugees back to Turkey

I would like to boycott Erdogan's products. He clearly supports cutting people's heads and terrorism.

The Turkish leader is aiding Aliyev and Azerbaijan in killing Christian civilians in Artsakh StopErdogan

Are the Turks also going to leave France?

No more French fries for Turks?

What a jerk.

Joke aside, this is a serious (nut)case. Erdogan has totally lost it and rather sooner than later he should be put in check. EU doors are firmly shut for Turkey; issue already solved 👍🏻 Next, expelled from NATO?

I must have missed Erdogan’s call to boycott China on the mass internment/imprisonment of Uighur Muslims in the western Chinese provinces or could it be that Erdogan uses his feigned defence of Islam for his own ends to bolster power at home & in the wider world

It’s obviously targeted campaign against Muslims in France and outside France, can they insult the Jewish prophet and mocking him since Zionist are the most terrorist in the world?

Fuck turkey president 😂👍

boycottfrance Boycott_French_Products

I am happy to buy French goods and I would like to boycott erdogan and all that is connected to his hate mongering. Who would listen to a dictator who has no respect for human rights?

They should stop buying Turkish goods... oh wait, there are none.

Little dictator.

I voted Brexit as I didnt want Turkey being allowed in the EU and most of their citizens camping outside my house begging for food and shelter

For how long are they going to boycott France products or are they boycotting it for society rather than for themselves🤭

France should send them a pinata of Mohammad and should give a free Mohammad pinata to every French citizen.

Korkmayın biz türkler dininize de, dilinize de müsaade ederiz. Ancak osmanlı dirildi, bilin istedim. Erdoğanlar bitmez artık. Dolarla, terörle bir yere kadar geldiniz, şimdi çekilin kenara, bu kan 1453 den, 1071 den, Uhut' tan, Bedirv den, Çanakkale' den.

StopErdoğan StopAzerbaijaniAggression StopAliyev SanctionTurkey

I guess I should have boycotted Tucas olives when Erdogan ok'd the return of the Hagia Sophia to use as a masjid...

Extremism en Radicalism is not an ideology to be embraced by Youths...it must be fought by all means until we're all free whether u like it or not.

In other words: the condemnation of islamistic terror by the french president is an evil act, even if it is condemned by the majority of peaceful Muslims. What does that tell about Reis Erdogan and his attitude?

RecognizeArtsakh SanctionTurkey StopAzerbaijaniAggression StopErdogan We will win because choose to live not to die in our motherland. We will live because our soldiers: brothers, sisters, sons, fathers don't spare their lives for the sake of our lives

Ha ha and turkey wants to be part of the European Union. What a joke!. Let them in and bye bye Europe.

Het over it!!!

Let them eat sand
