Title: Tens of thousands protest Turkish premier Recep Erdogan's visit to Germany Post by: cyberspacemonkey on May 27, 2014, 05:13:13 AM http://www.thelocal.de/20140524/germany-turks-protest-ahead-of-erdogan-speech (http://www.thelocal.de/20140524/germany-turks-protest-ahead-of-erdogan-speech)
"Erdogan and his Islamic-rooted Justice and Development Party (AKP) have polarized Turks at home and abroad over what critics call his authoritarian style, a crackdown on civil liberties and corruption scandals under his rule. In the western city of Cologne, where Erdogan spoke in an 18,000-seat arena, protesters waved banners that read: "Erdogan persona non grata", "Resistance against AKP fascism" and "Corruption, sharia, sultanate - Erdogan, you are not a democrat"."

If you look closely, it is clear that he is not even caring about his reputation anymore. He has undertaken a series of very unpopular steps, especially the one making him the most paid head of state in the world. http://en.mediamass.net/people/recep-tayyip-erdogan/highest-paid.html |
