Istanbul:
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan today said that Russia had no right to "slander" Turkey with allegations that it had bought oil from ISIS in Syria.
"No one has a right to engage in slander against Turkey by saying that Turkey is buying oil from Daesh (ISIS)," Erdogan said in comments broadcast by Turkish television on a visit to Qatar, after the Russian defence ministry claimed he and his family were involved in the illegal oil trade.
