While the world is caught up with the Russia-Ukraine crisis, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is trying to rally Turks across Europe to “work harder” to “advance the causes of Allah.”

And he “sees Turks living in Europe as his own citizens.” Turkey does not belong in NATO. It should have been ejected long ago. The Islamic supremacist, opportunist Erdogan has made no secret about his long-term ambition of global conquest in the form of a revived Ottoman Empire.

“Erdoğan seeks to rally Turks in Europe behind political Islam,” Ahval, March 21, 2022:

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is attempting to rally Turks across Europe behind his political Islamist cause, according to a report by the Stockholm-based Nordic Research & Monitoring Network.

Erdoğan who clearly sees Turks living in Europe as his own citizens, rather than nationals and/or residents of the countries where they live, work and retire, called on all to unite under one nation and one flag, the network said on Monday.

Last month, Erdogan said that when Turkey properly mobilises this power, no organisation, no evil structure, no hidden or open obstacles can stand in its way. He spoke at a meeting organised by the Union of International Democrats (UID), known as Erdoğan’s Justice and Development Party’s (AKP) proxy group abroad.

Erdoğan’s speech at the UID meeting was by far the most provocative to date, amounting to overt political interference in European affairs and using Turks and Muslims as trump cards against the nations, the network said.

Formerly named as The Union of European Turkish Democrats (UETD), the group was evaluated as incompatible with Germany’s constitutional order, according to a report by the German domestic intelligence agency, the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) in 2017. BfV has confirmed that it was spying on the group in Germany as an anti-sabotage measure.

The UID has 253 branches with 38 regional organisations in 17 countries.

In his speech, Erdoğan gave directions to UID members to work harder to achieve their objectives, the network said.

“The more you expand this umbrella as the UID, the more you increase your sphere of activity and influence, the more successfully you can fulfil the mission of delivering these messages to our citizens, organising them and preparing them for the future,” it cited Erdoğan as saying.

“The next pillar of the bridge we built from the past to the future should and will be the places where we live in Europe,“ Erdoğan said.

Erdoğan said hundreds of millions of Muslim friends and brothers stand behind the Turks and that they all are committed to the advancement of the causes of Allah and the truth.

Turkey, backed by Turks and Muslims in Europe, “would derail any plans devised by European governments”, Erdoğan said.
