Alex Salmond, the fervent Scottish nationalist and former first minister, has been criticized for hosting a new show on Turkish broadcaster TRT World. The show, 'Turkish Tea Talk', features Succession star Brian Cox as the first guest. Salmond has been accused of cosying up to a regime blamed for human rights abuses by the Scottish Liberal Democrats, and the channel has been criticized as a propaganda arm of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s regime.
