Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan has criticized Austria's decision to close seven mosques and expel imams, saying the steps taken by the Austrian Chancellor lead to a Crusade-Crescent war.
In his campaign speech, Tayyip Erdogan said that the western world must "settle" them, otherwise things will go in another direction.
"Doing these things, do you think that we will sit like that with our arms crossed?" It means that we will do something too ".
Turkish Prime Minister Binali Gildirim said Austria's stance was "hostile to Islam and religion".
