Ankara: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has come under criticism for
telling a small girl dressed in a military uniform that she would be
honoured if she were "martyred" for Turkey.
Erdogan
spotted the weeping-and-saluting 6-year-old Amine Tiras while delivering
a speech at his ruling party's congress in the city of Kahramanmaras on
Saturday, and had her brought on stage.
