Germany says 35 Turkish diplomats applied for asylum
[Ynet] The German Interior Ministry said on Monday that 35 Turkish citizens with diplomatic passports had applied for asylum after a failed military coup in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
in July that was followed by a crackdown on suspected supporters of the putsch.

Interior Ministry front man Johannes Dimroth told a regular government news conference the figure included Turkish diplomats as well as their family members, but did not say if they had all been based in Germany.

He said he could not give any more details on the diplomats and their motivation to apply for asylum in Germany.

At the Turkish embassy in Berlin, nobody was immediately available to comment.
