 Erdogan's speech at the UN general assembly:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJ4299xvBAg

"The values that the West claims to defend are dying. The truth is dying. The hopes of humanity to live in a more just world are dying one by one."

 Yes, but in turkey is even forbidden to talk about the genocide they committed against Armenians. I visited Turkey once and found many people there to be very racist.

When I talk about Kurds to Turkish people the answer that I get is "that people don't exist", the same what Israelis say about Palestinians.

I don't like Israel government, but I don't like Turkey government also.
