ISTANBUL (Reuters) - Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan accused some ambassadors in Turkey of involvement in "provocative actions" amid a widening graft probe in which 24 people, including the sons of two ministers, have been charged.
"These recent days, very strangely, ambassadors get involved in some provocative acts.

We do not have to keep you in our country," Erdogan told supporters in the Black Sea province Samsun.
