Germany hopeful relations with Turkey can normalize

Germany’s foreign minister says he hopes a meeting with his Turkish counterpart will help bring relations between the two countries back to normal after tempers flared in the past week. Diplomatic relations have taken a dive since Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan accused Germany of “Nazi practices” after several German municipalities canceled events where Turkish government ministers were to address rallies in support of a national referendum that would give Erdogan more powers.
