Not sure the funds to ‘promote democracy’ in Turkey were being spent properly.

The Europeans will have to find another way to appease Istanbul’s Il Duce.

Appeasement won’t work. It never has with Turkey, even before Erdoo.

They only understand force.

The EU has thought that being dependent upon oil delivered by Turkey was better than oil delivered by Russia. Germany and Russia have been enemies forever.

The EU has made some very bad calculations about their strategic partners. Socialist always deny reality.

Omgosh, mac_truck-!

I nearly LOL’d when I read the article.

Like the EU is really going to be able to control where the funds go.

Vain politicians, they are, for sure.
