"Turkey’s foreign minister, Mevlut Cavusoglu, has claimed that “holy wars will soon begin in Europe.”
...“Holy wars will soon begin in Europe,” he added in an ominous message predicting the collapse of the liberal democratic European project.
In fact, over the weekend, Cavusoglu’s own plane was barred from landing in the Netherlands when he made clear that his intentions were to galvanize popular support among Turkish nationals for a Turkish referendum aimed at expanding the powers of dictatorial Islamist President Erdogan.
Tensions between the two countries hit a boiling point when Erdogan compared to the Dutch government to “Nazis” and “fascists,” prompting Prime Minister Rutte to dismiss the Erdogan government as unhinged."
