Turkey protests: PM Erdogan issues stern warning

June 11, 2013 23:01

Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan has warned that he will not show "any more tolerance" for protests.

He vowed to end the demonstrations after police cleared Istanbul's Taksim Square, the focal point of unrest for nearly two weeks.

However, protesters remained in the adjoining Gezi Park and returned to Taksim Square in the evening.

The unrest began after a crackdown on an environmental protest over Gezi Park's redevelopment.
