Lol, what happened yesterday serves Erdogan right. Putin judo-threw him on a table, bended him over, bummed him up the arse and rinsed his ringpiece with vodka for good measure, like the Russian bear he is.
Take note, people; that's what a cunning and crafty statesman looks like.
Hyperbolic, but I like the image.
That being said it, nevertheless, shows something rather interesting in term of behavior.
-Erdogan does not listen to NATO, while being a NATO member.
-Erdogan threatens NATO, while being a NATO member.
-Same thing goes with the EU; Erdogan threatens and blackmails the EU, while not being a EU member but occasionally asking to be a EU member.
-Erdogan does not really listen to the US or Trump, though asks the US to sell them/provide them with weapon systems.
-Does Erdogan listen to his people? According to his recent behavior, calling those opposed to the military operation in Syria "traitors", possibly not.
But, apparently, Erdogan listens to Putin. Or, at least, only Putin seems able to have Erdo pipe his tone down.
