Behind Turkey’s bitter relationship with Egypt


Listen Later

Turkey and Egypt, two countries who have shared histories, now find themselves at odds on a range of issues. One has been Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's outspoken criticism of Egyptian leader Abdel Fattah el Sisi. Recently Erdogan said that he "wouldn't speak" with a leader like Sisi, that's after the execution of nine people sentenced for the killing of a prosecutor back in 2015. But, there are many other sticking points, from the mass detentions of Egyptian dissidents to energy disputes in the Mediterranean.
