=== Turkey === After the [[Christchurch mosque shootings]] in 2019 (which were carried out by an Australian), [[President of Turkey|Turkish President]] [[Recep Tayyip Erdoğan]] warned that if [[Australians]] and [[New Zealand]]ers with anti-[[Muslim]] and anti-[[Turkey|Turkish]] views try to enter Turkey, they will be "sent back home in coffins like their grandfathers", referring to the [[Australia in World War I#Gallipoli|Australian Landings on Gallipoli against Turkish Forces]] in [[World War I]]. Many [[Australians]] and [[New Zealanders]] were highly offended by these comments and accused Erdoğan of anti-Australianism. Australian [[Prime Minister of Australia|Prime Minister]] [[Scott Morrison]] and New Zealand [[Prime Minister of New Zealand|Prime Minister]] [[Jacinda Ardern]] described these comments as "appalling" and "highly insensitive".<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.afr.com/politics/federal/turkey-s-envoy-hauled-in-over-deeply-offensive-massacre-comments-20190320-p515oh | title=Row deepens over Turkey's 'deeply offensive' comments | date=20 March 2019 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://apnews.com/article/europe-asia-pacific-middle-east-ap-top-news-religion-5c0c6625dc6e4267aa4e7c1119b9bb83 | title=Turkey's Erdogan sparks spat with Australia, New Zealand | website=[[Associated Press]] | date=20 April 2021 }}</ref>
