Erdogan backtracks on threats to expel US envoy and 9 other ambassadors
[RT] Ankara has backtracked on its threats to declare 10 envoys "personae non gratae" after they called for the release of an opposition figure even though their embassies had officially vowed not to interfere in the country’s affairs.

The apparent resolution of the diplomatic row was announced by President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than there are in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really most important...
following a government meeting to discuss the potential expulsion of the ambassadors late on Monday.

Shortly before the meeting, the US Embassy, along with as well others involved in the scandal, released a statement pledging their compliance with Article 41 of the Vienna Convention on diplomatic relations, which states that missions must not interfere in the affairs of the host country.

Erdogan reiterated his displeasure with the original statement by the 10 envoys, calling it a "great insult" to the country’s judiciary, which "does not accept anyone’s orders." He acknowledged the "step back" by the embassies, however, signaling that the row was resolved.

"Our intention is not to create a crisis, and those embassies backtracked in their statement of adherence to the Vienna Convention. We expect the ambassadors to act accordingly from now on," Erdogan stated.
