US secretary of state to talk to foreign minister Hakan Fidan in latest stop of diplomatic tour as US nuclear-powered submarine heads through Suez canal
US secretary of state Antony Blinken has arrived in Turkey amid volatile scenes ahead of talks on Gaza as the US military took the rare step of announcing it had sent a nuclear-powered submarine to the region.
Police in Turkey used teargas and water cannon to disperse hundreds of protesters who marched on an air base housing US forces in Turkey’s south-east hours before Blinken’s arrival on Sunday ahead of Monday’s talks in Ankara with foreign minister Hakan Fidan.
