    Everybody in Europe. Turkey has the second largest army in NATO after the US. Also its geographical position makes is strategically very important.

          People != their government

          Except that they’re still mostly a democracy, and they vote for the shit.

            Still mostly a democracy? Erdogan just had the opposition candidate for president arrested and is in progress with getting him disqualified from running entirely. Turkiye has not been a democracy for a long time and the dictator is just doing it in the open now.

            I support the Turks. Let them kick Erdogan out!
