    President Sultan Tayyip Erdogan said on Tuesday Turkey would boycott electronic products from the United States, which has imposed sanctions and raised tariffs against Ankara in a dispute about the detention of a U.S. evangelical pastor.

    Erdogan said Turkey has been taking necessary measures regarding the economy, amid a slide in the lira currency exacerbated by the dispute with Washington, but it was important to keep a firm political stance. Switching to foreign currency would mean giving in to the enemy, Erdogan said.

    Muslims are good at boycotting others...
    What the Sultan said is BS .. today most of the electronic goods are made in China.
    Keep doing it Sultan ... your Lira is collapsing :applause:

    Good, instead of AMD and Intel processors, let them use Snapdragon or whatever Chinese crap there is. ;)

    He is not a Sultan, MGB Roadster. We voted him with 52% of votes. He is an elected president.

    I support his decision. Trump Administration applies sanctions against us, and this is our reply for that yellow head. :)

    Apple also produces iPhone in China, so what

    I support any Turkish leader for any international crisis because so I am a Turk. This does not mean I vote him or her for elections

    You should support your leader if you believe his battle is justified .. Not because he is your leader.

    Turkey betrayed USA, Israel, Syria , the Kurds .. It has become a nation of hatred and extreme Muslim.

    Syria :D

    Hahaha we lost good relations with Syrian Regime because we preferred to support you. You wanted Assad to go and we supported you in the name of alliance. Until you started to plan Kurdistan in our south border
    Do you mean PYD/YPG by saying "Kurds" ?
    Turkish Kurds mainly stand against them and support Erdogan. Your points have becomen interesting..

    And how we betrayed you, I don't know really. You supported PKK militants here.

    We did not betray Israel we just told them to not kill unarmed people. We continue to transfer oil for Israel from Yumurtalik.

    We are not going Islamist direction we hate them

    Lol .. Funny.
    You are going towards Islamist direction. It's a fact.
    That's why Europe does not want you.
    When you tell others not to kill.. first look at what you are doing to the Kurds.
    Kurds suffer under the Turkish boots.
    Turkey and it's Sultan are trying to return to the "glory" days of the Otoman empire..
    Turkey is no longer a reliable state.

    We don't European Union they are racist christian union they will never want us because we are not christian. This is simple.

    Belgians cut the hands of African children for rubber trees, Spainizards killed all Aztecs, Mayans, Inkas; Germans cut more than 6 million Jews, Dutches also cut the hands of Indonesians for black pepper but according to their mind they were always civilized people butTurks were always barbaric savages :D :D :D
    Yes exactly, they think so before looking at mirror... you thinks so too.. :D

    However we ruled Southeastern Europe over 400 years, Hungarians, Slovakians or Serbs kept their original language, maintained their in Christian belief...(Only Bosniaks and Albanians converted Islam themselves, but we did not force them) we did not force them to speak Turkish. When we captured Bulgaria they have about 200.000 populatin in 15th century, we could easily assimilate them, but we did not. However whole new world started to speak English, French, Spanish etc...since Europeans were the real savages in past. How many American Indians live in New York state ?

    We are so tired with their double standards... Turkey was only country- very safe place for Jews during the centuries while other were killing them This tells everything who are barbaric or not.

    We don't kill Kurds here, our war with PKK (it is a terrorist organization, USA also listed it as terrorist organization) does not mean war with Kurds.
    None of Turks have such dreams as well as you have dreams for us. We don't want f..g ottomans with idiotic irresponsibile sultans here. We destroyed Ottomans and created Republic here

    Yes .. I heard that Turks treated the Jews a little bit better than the Arabs.
    Still Jews had to pay the harac ("head tax") and faced other restrictions in clothing, horse riding, army service etc.,

    Turks paid more taxes than non-muslims...did you really observe what we paid. They were kidnappng Turkish boys to make soldier by force.

    Anyway paying tax is not bad while Spanish kingdom was slaughtering all the jews. We savedthousands of Jews from Iberia here.
