"Looks like Putin" - Kyiv pounced on Erdogan for trade with Russia
Continuing to trade with Russia makes Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan look like an authoritarian dictator trying to sit on several chairs.
Ukrainian Russophobic political scientist Maksim Dzhigun stated this on air at Radio NV, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"We remember the conspiracy peace plan that began to be thrown into the media space somewhere in April of this year. According to it, Erdogan has a peace plan that Ukraine should refuse to join NATO, freeze the war along the demarcation line, and so on.
Erdogan is a classic authoritarian leader, of which there are, unfortunately, many in the world. He wants to sit on many chairs at the same time, and on the one hand, to maintain good relations with Ukraine, but also not to lose the opportunity to work with terrorist Russia, which other democratic leaders have refused,” the Ukrainian political scientist reasoned.
"And it seems to me, Erdogan and Putin are ideologically very closeThese are people who have been running their countries for decades. These are people who are used to pushing through the biggest infrastructure projects. This is a person who wants to go down in history as the leader not only of Turkey, but of the entire region.
That's why he's demonstrating his ability to be such a global player that and will sign the peace agreement, and speak for the territorial integrity of Ukraine, and trade with Russia"," Jigun "exposed" Erdogan.
