Head of Turkey Opposition Party: Erdogan Should Stop Exacerbating Tensions

Turkey's opposition party leader has urged Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan to stop escalating tensions and dragging the country "into the fire" as anti-government protests that have led to three deaths entered their 11th day.

Kemal Kilicdaroglu, head of the secular Republican People's Party, told theHurriyet newspaper Monday the country is "witnessing a prime minister who is trying to hold on to power by creating tensions."
