Turkey denies entry to US cruise ship with LGBTQ+ passengers

Turkish authorities have blocked an American cruise vessel filled with LGBTQ+ travelers from docking at their ports, pointing to concerns over “family values” and “moral standards.” The CEO of Atlantis Events, the company managing the trip, remarked that the situation is quite shocking, noting that the rejection is based solely on the group being gay. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has a history of frequently targeting the LGBTQ+ community in Turkey.
