maybrit illner - Sendung in HD vom 21.7.2016 im ZDF: Ausnahmezustand in der Türkei: Der Putsch ist niedergeschlagen, die von Präsident Erdoğan ankündigten „Säuberungen“ laufen auf Hochtouren und den Verschwörern könnte die Todesstrafe drohen.

Werden die Konflikte in der Türkei auch das Zusammenleben in Deutschland vergiften?
