Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan hit back at Austria on Saturday after the country moved to expel several imams accused of spreading radical Islam.
The President warned of a global war between Christians and Muslims as he blasted Austria's move to close mosques and expel Turkish-funded imams.
Erdogan said in a speech in Istanbul: 'These measures taken by the Austrian prime minister are, I fear, leading the world towards a war between the cross and the crescent.'
