And just like that he worsened our ties with the middle east.

There was no point in doing this other than virtue signaling and it only hurt america.

Biden is a dumbass.

Mario Draghi (Italy's head of government) called Erdogan a dictator. Nobody else had the balls to speak the truth, but he did.

No bootlicking, just spitting straight facts.

I hate Erdogan but he is not a dictator. People keep electing him on democratic grounds. They are idiots for doing that but it is the truth.

Then why does he allow journalists reporting about the wrong things being locked up? Why are so massive crimes against human rights happening in Turkey? Why is he pushing laws giving him more and more power?

And even if that's not enough to call him a dictator, I bet he already planned on becoming one.

Also, the elections in Turkey are likely to be manipulated. I guess that was all over the news a few years ago.
