None
A senior Turkish government official said on Wednesday that the conviction of Turkish banker Hakan Atilla in the United States violated international law.
A US jury on Wednesday found Atilla, an executive at Turkey's majority state-owned Halkbank, guilty of helping Iran evade US sanctions.
The official told Reuters the outcome of the trial would not hurt the Turkish economy, banking system or Halkbank.
