The Turkish government's decision to close the Sputnik news agency's website has led to a rash of criticism from individuals and organizations both inside and outside Turkey. The closure, critics say, is another indication of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's real attitudes toward freedom of speech.

The Turkish government's move, and its attitude toward journalists and press freedom in general, has been criticized by everyone from Sputnik's Editor-in-Chief, to officials in the OSCE, and European lawmakers, and of course Turkish academics and journalists themselves. For now, the Turkish edition of Sputnik has been able to stay afloat by publishing on its Facebook page.
