Now, let me just tell you why this is wrong and why Trump is a hypocrite. (And just to add I am not defending Erdoğan in this)
WHY THIS IS WRONG:
Trump is following a mentality of leader = country. This is a quarrel between 2 stupid egotistical figures. Trump is going to impose sanctions because of his problem with Erdoğan, make the people suffer.
(Not to mention that we still have other trade partners than just the US or EU overall, so this is sort of just useless)
The only good thing to come out of this would be Turkey joining BRICS possibly.
WHY TRUMP IS A HYPOCRITE:
Trump is protecting the terrorist leader known as Fetüllah Gülen, who is the leader of the Islamist group "FETÖ".
There has been many reports of Gülenist schools, there has been a video in the street Gülen stays in (I believe his location is in Pennsylvania), and in the video you can see the people complain about the fact that Gülen is RUNNING their neighbourhood, with his goons.
Erdoğan has clearly stated "give us the Pope(Gülen) and we'll give you the Pope.", another way to do this would be that Trump releases Attila Taş, who is obviously innocent but still has his court case going on.

Siluk Do not you understand that Mr.Trump is simply doing what gave him a Deep state?  Turkey is a secular state that is open to all religions .. and if a pastor who was an agent of the State Department was arrested, Turkey has the right to defend itself. But I Think Erdogan wants to exchange the pastor for Islamist Gülen for himself

I mean, we have probably the worst ' leader ' out there.. he's a cosplayer/teenage girl at best. Erdogan is a nutcase and needs to be brought to heel, it's for the betterment of the world anyway.. he's another bratty stepchild and needs to be taken down a few notches. |

I very much doubt he could get the EU to also sanction us. It is possible but some Slovakia mlovakia will just say "no" and the EU won't be able to sanction.
However, if EU does indeed sanction us also, we'd be absolutely fucked.
