US: Turkish president’s security team attack protesters on the streets of Washington DC

(Washington) The visit of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to the US, drew out a crowd of protesters who object to his style of leadership. However this didn't go down well with his bodyguards who presumed that as they can stamp down hard on anything and everything back in the mother-country, they can do exactly the same elsewhere, which is why they charged the protesters yesterday on the streets of Washington DC and put 9 of them in hospital, 2 of them seriously injured.

It appears the brawl erupted when the Turkish president’s security detail attacked protesters carrying the flag of the Kurdish PYD party outside the Turkish ambassadors residence.
