ISTANBUL: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Saturday the U.S. could not be called a civilized country.
"What do they call America? The cradle of democracy. Such a thing cannot be a democracy and its name cannot be democracy," he said at the Civilizations Forum at Ibn Haldun University in Istanbul.
"If America issues arrest warrants for my 13 bodyguards in a country where I went upon invitation, I'm sorry, but I will not say that country is civilized," Erdogan said at the Civilizations Forum at Ibn Haldun University in Istanbul.

So he's peeved that his bodyguards who are on film beating people up got arrest warrants. I'm glad those arrest warrants were issued.
