Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan hit out Thursday against "massacres" of Muslims in India after communal riots in New Delhi left at least 33 dead.
"India right now has become a country where massacres are widespread. What massacres? Massacres of Muslims? By who? Hindus," Erdoğan said during a speech in Ankara after violence broke out this week between mobs of Hindus and Muslims over a citizenship law.
