Erdogan: Merkel is an enemy of turkey

[Melech 9,900]

"Germany will hold a general election on 24 September, and about one million ethnic Turks living in Germany can vote. A majority of them backed Mr Erdogan in an April referendum.

"The Christian Democrats [CDU], SPD [Social Democrats], the Green Party are all enemies of Turkey," he said.

German ministers protested angrily.

Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel said Mr Erdogan's comments were an "unprecedented" act of interference in Germany's sovereignty.

Mr Erdogan has lashed out at Germany before, yet the two countries are major trade partners and allies in Nato.

He was furious that the German government refused to let some of his allies campaign for him in Germany before the April vote, which paved the way for him to get sweeping new executive powers. That refusal, he said, was "Nazi-style" behaviour.

Tensions increased after the abortive coup attempt against Mr Erdogan in July 2016, during which at least 240 people died. 

President Erdogan blamed the network of US-based cleric Fethullah Gulen over the coup plot, and accused Germany of protecting Gulenists. The cleric has denied any role in the plot."

I think he's far worse 

And that 1 million turks can vote both in Turkey and Germany is a catastrophe...

Why is that a catastrophy?   The most vocal people against Erdogan are German-Turkish persons. (Cem Özdemir, Seyran Ates etc.)

That's because this people are the ones who have the biggest connection to Turkey out of the germans. I guess you would be more vocal too, if it is about your home country. But this doesn't change the fact, that 63,2 % of the people who can vote in both countries, voted for Erdogan. I think you should not be able to vote in a country, that you don't live in.

"I vote for this dicatator, doesn't matter anyway, I'm safe in a democracy..." That's bs.

Home-country was not the right phrasing, but it still changes nothing. You describe them as german-turkish and they still have a bigger connection to turkey as other germans. So if that was your only complaint...
