Recep Tayyip Erdoğan
The First Visit To Egypt by a Prime Minister of Turkey After The Egyptian Revolution of 2011.
Cairo, Egypt
Erdoğan visited Egypt on 12 September 2011, soon after Turkey had ejected Israeli ambassadors, cutting off all diplomatic relations with Israel because Israel refused to apologize for the Gaza flotilla raid which killed eight Turkish and one Turco-American. This was the first visit to Egypt by a Prime Minister of Turkey after the Egyptian Revolution of 2011.
