Relations between Ankara and Cairo collapsed in 2013 after Egypt's then-army chief Sisi led the ouster of the Muslim Brotherhood's Mohamed Mursi, a Turkish ally who had become Egypt's first democratically elected president the year before. Mursi visited Turkey as president in 2012.

Awkward paragraph; so Sisi lead there toppling of Mursi from the Muslim brotherhood?
