‘Is Venezuela your state?’ Erdogan slams US, EU states for Guaido endorsement |
2019-02-06 |
[ALMASDARNEWS] ... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey... slammed the United States and a number of European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... countries for their endorsement of Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido as interim president of the country, during a parliamentary address in Ankara on Tuesday. "Is Venezuela your state? How can you tell someone to leave who is doing the job following an election? And how can you deliver the presidency of a nation to someone who hasn’t even been elected? Where’s the democracy? Weren’t you democratic?," Erdogan asked rhetorically. The European Union had planned to issue a statement of support for Guiado, but the move was reportedly vetoed by Italia. Several EU states have formally recognised Juan Guaido as the interim president of Venezuela. Accusing the West of hypocrisy, Erdogan asked: "on the one hand, you say repeatedly ’democracy’ and ’ballot box’, and then you’re going to topple the government with force and deception?" The Last month Erdogan and US President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... discussed establishing a safe zone east of the Euphrates river in Syria. |

#6 If you look at the troubled states in middle east I would think Turkey could be next in getting the worlds negative attention: Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, Libya, Iraq some more, Syria, Yemen... |

#5 Supporting a crooked election of a hostile leader? Thats what you are doing when you agree with Erdogan. He's NOT right and neither are you isolationists. Maduro government is not duly elected. We have no obligation to recognize it. And it benefits the US to do otherwise. America First. Thats why Trump does what he does. Sets a rather nice precedent for the next time Erdogan rigs an election. As usual, Trump is a move ahead of the clowns. |

#3 No they are not our state, and we have no responsibility for its failure, or helping the remnants recover. Burn, baby burn. |

#2 I actually think he's getting nervous about Trump getting tired of him being a yapping dog. |
