Erdogan is brilliant at playing both sides. Europe and Russia, Europe and the middle east.
He understands that Turkey is indispensable for both sides, so like a kid from divorced parents he knows exactly how to work this into his favor.
I hate the guy and what he did to democracy in Turkey tbh, but this is the game he plays most cunningly. Not many nations can get away with shooting down a Russian jet and get away with it.
I’m this case he’s calling out European hypocrisy, as he knows they care about that. He doesn’t.

Helping genocidal countries is not something to respect
I don’t respect him in any manner, I’d like to spit in his face.
But I’m pointing out that he gets respect from all nations around him.
Don’t look into Sudan.
