The politician stopped mid-sentence as people rushed to help the journalist and within seconds, the show went to a commercial break.
The incident occurred during a broadcast of the popular “Anatolia Asks” show on the TRT News Channel. When the show resumed, Eker told viewers: “This is the first time you have experienced something like this.
“We have sent our friend to the hospital. It’s probably a flu infection. He’s tired too. He may have fainted for this reason.”
