Saudi Arabia's boycott campaign against Turkish products did not work, Eurasi Diary reports according to Yeni Safak.
Saudi Arabians should not do business with Turkish companies in the Kingdom, said the head of Saudi Arabia’s Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday, as he repeated his call for a boycot of “everything Turkish.”
“I say it with certainty and clarity: No investment, no import, no tourism.” said Saudi Arabia’s Chamber of Commerce head Ajlan al-Ajlan in a post on Twitter.
“We, as citizens and businessmen, will not have any dealings with everything Turkish. Even the Turkish companies operating in the Kingdom, I call not to deal with them,” he added.
But, the boycott campaign launched by Saudi Arabia against Turkish goods was not supported in the Arab world. While Saudi Arabia force the authorities responsible for the commercial sector as well as their own citizens to do "the semi-official boycott", support to Turkey came from counrties as Qatar, Kuwait, Somalia, Ethiopia, Yemen and Egypt .
Qatar, Kuwait, Somalia, Ethiopia, Yemen and Egypt via Twitter initializing "Support Turkey" are expressing their support with the hashtag.
