/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Bodyguards of US President Barack Obama and Turkish
Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan started a dispute over Premiers’
security issue, which escalated into a brawl.
As Cumhuriyet Turkish newspaper reported, the dispute started over
bodyguards’ disagreement on necessary security measures. Premiers’
bodyguards were not provided with radio communication. As a result,
Erdogan had to cancel his address at "G20 and its influence on global
issues" summit, organized by Bill Clinton and return to Sheraton
Plaza hotel.
Erdogan himself interfered in the fight, while one of US bodyguards
pushed him out of the scramble.
