Recep Tayyip Erdoğan: Portrait of a Backstabbing Pasha

He increases his personal power, but undermines the interests of the Turkish nation and its people.  Erdoğan believes he is the rising regional hegemon, indispensable to the West.  He blackmails the EU for billions of Euros to control the flood of refugees fleeing violence in Syria and Iraq with his promises to warehouse desperate refugees in Turkish concentration camps.  But Europeans must know that their money can never buy trust and loyalty from the Pasha.
