A journalist, at the conference given at Bilgi University, Istanbul, attacked Kahn by throwing shoes and yelling “IMF go away from TURKEY”.
After the protest, IMF managing director said that It was important for us to be talking in a so open way. I was glad to see Turkish students and one more thing I learnt from my journey that, Turkish students were so kind, they waited the end of the speech to state their complaints.
After the act, he started to run towards Kahn and he was taken under arrest and the conference was terminated.
