European Council President Charles Michel is suffering from bad nights because of his embarrassment over the seating incident at a meeting in Ankara this week, he told the German newspaper Handelsblatt, Reuters reports.

“I make no secret of the fact that I haven’t slept well at night since because the scenes keep replaying in my head,” Michel told Handelsblatt.

Ursula Von der Leyen raised a hand in disbelief when she found Michel had taken the only chair available next to Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan at the talks.
