Turkey's beleaguered president addresses country on FaceTime

Turkey's president resorted to FaceTime in an attempt to rally people against a military coup.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan was forced to use an iPhone's video chat feature to address the country.
He used FaceTime in an interview with CNN Türk, this network's partner in Turkey.
"Go to the streets and give them their answer," Erdoğan urged as the reporter held up her phone to the network's camera. "I am coming to a square in Ankara."
"This was done from outside the chain of command," he said. He said the lower officers had rebelled against senior officers.
"Those who are responsible, we will give them the necessary punishment," Erdoğan said.
It was not clear where he was speaking from.
