The latest post on ‘Mashable’ is titled “Turkey Wants to Tax Facebook and Twitter”.
Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai says, “In a new stage in Turkey’s strife against U.S. social media companies, the Turkish government now wants Twitter and Facebook to pay taxes to its treasury — despite the fact that neither have an office in Turkey.
All social media companies that do business in Turkey should pay taxes to the Turkish Government and have an office in the country, said Turkey’s Finance Minister Mehmet Simsek in a press conference on Tuesday, according to news reports.
His remarks came just a couple of days after Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan accused Twitter of being a “tax evader.”“.
