Turkey will not succumb to "fascists and racists" like Dutch nationalist politician Geert Wilders, Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu said on March 9.

"I will go to the Netherlands, no such obstacle can stop us... We will not succumb to fascists and racists like Wilders," Çavuşoğlu told reporters on the sidelines of a visit.
     
His comments contradicted earlier reports that he had cancelled a planned Rotterdam rally ahead of an April 16 referendum.
