Turkey ad warns of rape 鈥榬isk鈥 in Sweden
Print Edition
A billboard displayed this week in Istanbul’s main airport warns travelers against visiting Sweden, describing the country as having the highest incidence of rape in the world, the latest salvo between EU-candidate Turkey and its European allies.
Ties between Ankara and Europe have worsened since last month’s failed coup, with Turkey accusing its Western allies of insensitivity, saying they were more concerned about a subsequent crackdown than the coup itself.
“Travel warning! Do you know that Sweden has the highest rape rate worldwide?” read the large advert, which was put on display on Thursday next to a moving walkway in the departures section of Ataturk Airport’s international terminal.
Travelers at the airport glanced at the billboard as they passed along the moving walkway yesterday.
Alongside the message was an image of the front page of the pro-government Gunes newspaper that read: “Rape country Sweden.”
The state-run Anadolu Agency said a private company had paid for the controversial advertisement.
