European leaders attending the NATO summit in Ankara were presented with engraved pistols, live ammunition and cleaning kits as part of a farewell gift from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.⁣ ⁣ The gifts were given to figures including European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. ⁣ ⁣ Erdogan reportedly waived export controls on the firearms, but Starmer’s revolver remains in Türkiye because importing a live firearm into the UK is illegal.⁣ ⁣ #NATO #Turkey #Erdogan #KeirStarmer #UrsulaVonDerLeyen
