Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said that Pope Francis was caught in a trap of conspirators plotting against the ruling Justice and Development Party. The PM called the conspirators a front of evil of which the Pope was part, together with the Republican People's Party and the Democratic People's Party, RIA Novosti reports.
Davutoglu reminded that the Ottoman Empire had given asylum to Jewish refugees fleeing from the Catholic inquisition in Spain.
Pope Francis said at a liturgy on Sunday that the Armenian genocide, Nazism and Stalinism were the three biggest tragedies of the 20th century.
