Turkey rejects BBC journalist's 'a lot of gold' claims

Presidential spokesman Ibrahim Kalin rejected on Saturday the claim of a BBC journalist that there was "a lot of gold" at the Turkish presidential palace.


The BBC's Political Editor, Laura Kuenssberg, tweeted earlier on Tuesday: "In Erdogan's Palace - there's a lot of gold," sharing a photo of a stage -- where the press briefings are conducted -- and its walls with some decorations at the presidential palace.

After an hour, she shared another photo of some elevators at the presidential palace, tweeting: "another world leader fond of golden lifts."

Kalin termed the claims about gold as 'lies'.

"String of lies about 'gold' in Presidential Complex by @bbclaurak. None of these is gold. Only reflects the low quality of your journalism," he tweeted.

Kuenssberg is currently in Ankara for the British Prime Minister Theresa May's official visit.
