Turkey said it does nott want the Netherlands ambassador to return "for some time" as relations quickly deteriorated between the NATO allies after the Dutch government barred Turkey's foreign minister from flying to the country. In response to the Netherlands' withdrawing landing permission, Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan accused the Dutch government of acting like "fascists" and "Nazi remnants". Turkish authorities blocked the Dutch embassy and consulate as the dispute between the two countries over Turkey's political campaigning in Europe intensified. Turkey also closed off the residences of the Dutch ambassador, charge d'affaires, and consul general.
