One for the Turkish lira traders. Erdogan hasn't stopped at sacking senior officials at the central bank.
From earlier this month:
- Turkish President Erdogan fires three more central bank policymakers
- Turkish lira (TRY) to its lowest ever in the wake of President Erdogan sacking more central bank officials
Erdogan said on Saturday that he had told his foreign ministry to expel the ambassadors of
- Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Finland, New Zealand and the United States
Seven of those are Turkey's NATO allies.
Via Reuters, Erdogan announced the expulsions to cheers from a crowd he was addressing.
The deepening rift with the west will not be a positive contribution to lira sentiment.
