Erdogan says a lot of things for public consumption as a politician to work on his voter base which are conservative Muslim Brotherhood type charters and keep the vast wealth his family has horded at top dog as a Sultan. He yaps a lot like barking dog with rabies and often contradicts himself as the political animal he is. One minute he bags out the US and EU next he embraces them. One minute he attacks Russia the next he is grovelling to Putin. He opposes terrorism and supports Syria's integrity while sending more troops over and supporting militant Islam. I could go on but the guy's very two faced at times.
