“The many expressions of solidarity and support actions by the ruling AKP and President Erdogan for the Egyptian MB (Muslim Brotherhood), Hamas and groups of armed Islamist opposition in Syria emphasize their ideological affinity with the (broader) Muslim Brotherhood,”

“As a result of the step-by-step Islamization of its foreign and domestic policy since 2011, Turkey has become the central platform for action by Islamist groups in the Middle East,”

Quotes from "Berlin sees Turkey as Middle East terrorism hub, refuses to admit it publicly – report"

"We will reinforce old alliances and form new ones, and unite the civilized world against radical Islamic terrorism, which we will eradicate completely from the face of the Earth."

Quote from President Trump's inauguration speech.

The Turkish government either didn't realize what Trump was saying or they believe he isn't serious.
