Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Thursday called on the world not to be swayed by US leader Donald Trump's threat to cut off financial funding, during a key vote on a motion rejecting US recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
"I am calling on the whole world: never sell your democratic will in return for petty dollars," he said in a televised speech in Ankara. Trump threatened to cut funding to countries that backed the measure.
