A Turkish court ruled Wednesday that Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's government could not legally block Twitter access in Turkey.
On March 20, Erdogan announced his decision to seek a court order to "eradicate" Twitter during a campaign rally in Bursa, saying "Twitter and so on, we will root them out. The international community can say this or that -- I don't care. They will see the power of the Turkish Republic."
