Erdogan slams Sweden for allowing protest in which Koran was burnt

Description

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan denounces Sweden for allowing a protest during which a man burned pages from the Koran, the sacred scripture of Islam, further clouding the Nordic nation's chances of quickly joining NATO. "We will never yield to the politics of provocation or the politics of threat," he says in televised remarks. SOUNDBITE
