I have no idea if this carries weight, say, if we read something like Former British PM Tony Blair says something. We'd probably at least, listen to what Mr. Blair says.

No doubt that Gülen was behind Turkey’s coup attempt: Former Swedish PM Bildt

There is no doubt that U.S.-based Islamic scholar Fethullah Gülen and his movement were at the center of the failed coup attempt of July 15, former Swedish Prime Minister Carl Bildt has said during a European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR) delegation visit to Ankara.

“When I saw the coup attempt on television, the first suspect that came to my mind regarding who could have done this was Gülen. Developments since that day have clearly revealed that Gülen and the organization he leads were at the center of this attempt,” Bildt was quoted as saying by state-run Anadolu Agency.

“In my talks both in Turkey and with foreign experts following Turkey, I saw that nobody has any doubt that Gülen was at the center of the coup attempt,” he said.

Earlier, Bildt had also noted on Twitter that the delegation had not encountered a single person who doubted Gülen’s involvement in the coup attempt.
