Turkey on Friday said 32 Turkish diplomats were still missing despite being recalled by Ankara in the wake of last month’s failed coup seeking to oust President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. “Thirty-two of the 208 diplomats recalled to Turkey did not come back to Turkey,” Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told reporters during a Press conference in Ankara.
He said Ankara had information that some had fled to other countries using different means in the weeks after a rogue military faction tried to remove President Erdogan from power on July 15.
