PARIS (Reuters) - Turkey should not meddle in France's domestic affairs, Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said on Tuesday, after Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan called for a boycott of French goods, citing French leader Emmanuel Macron's "anti-Islam" agenda.

Erdogan's comments on Monday were the latest expression of anger in the Muslim world over images being displayed in France of the Prophet Mohammad, which some Muslims consider blasphemous. Erdogan also questioned Macron's mental health, prompting Paris to recall its ambassador in Ankara.
