French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo has published a cartoon of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on the cover of Wednesday's issue. This announcement and the cover photo were posted on Twitter on Tuesday.

The cartoon is published amid the current escalation of the diplomatic conflict between Ankara and Paris.

Following Erdogan's harsh statements about French President Emmanuel Macron, Paris was forced to recall its ambassador to Ankara.

France has also demanded that the EU impose sanctions on Turkey.
