BBC World Service - Newshour, Erdogan says Dutch Will 'Pay the Price' for Diplomatic Spat

President Erdogan reacts after Turkish ministers were refused access to a Dutch rally

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has warned the Netherlands that it will "pay the price" for harming ties after two of his ministers were barred. The officials were blocked from addressing Turkish expatriates in Rotterdam, ahead of a referendum on whether Turkey's presidency should be granted greater powers.

Also in the programme, Britain prepares for the prospect of its negotiations with the European Union ending before a Brexit agreement is reached. And Sister Sledge singer Joni Sledge has died at the age of 60. Hear from one of her collaborators.
