The spokesman for Turkiye`s ruling AK Party, Ömer Çelik said some Western media outlets are engaging in "black propaganda" by criticizing Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
"What they are doing is not a media activity, it is primitive black propaganda," Ömer wrote on Twitter.
Some Western media outlets "systematically target" the Turkish leader, Çelik added.
According to Çelik, they are "uncomfortable with our president`s following an independent and principled line in foreign policy."
Germany`s Stern magazine and British weekly The Economist recently published cover stories focusing on the Turkish president, as Turkish presidential election is knocking at the door and Erdogan brings forward the date of general election a month prior than planned.
