Several EU leaders have criticised Turkey, amid a growing row over the Turkish government's attempts to hold rallies in European countries. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan accused Germany and the Netherlands of Nazism after officials blocked rallies there. <br/><br/>Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte called his comments unacceptable, while Germany's Foreign Minister said he hoped Turkey would return to its senses. Denmark's leader has also postponed a planned meeting with Mr Erdogan. Prime Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said he was concerned that democratic principles are under great pressure in Turkey. <br/><br/>He added that he had postponed the meeting because with the current Turkish attacks on Holland the meeting cannot be seen separated from that.
