Turkish people with Austrian citizenship who recently joined protests in support of president Recep Tayyip Erdogan should be investigated with a view to stripping their Austrian nationality, far-right presidential candidate Norbert Hofer has said. His comments in the Oesterreich daily could further harm relations after Austria said the EU should axe Turkish membership talks because of Erdogan's post-coup crackdown.
