"Welcome, al Turkiye Channel

The launch of the Arabic language TRT al Turkiye channel which took place recently received more Arab media interest than the launch of other similar [Arabic language] channels that seek to address the Arab world, such as the Arab Russia Today or France 24 Arabic channels and others. Even the launch of BBC Arabic two years ago seems dull in comparison to the attention received by the launch of the official Turkish channel TRT al Turkiye. This is also despite the fact that the official Turkish channel seems to be the most modest in terms of production and coverage in comparison to the other Arabic-language channels."
