Erdogan warns critics: Turkey is not ordinary

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan issued a defiant statement directed at critics, whom he labeled 'baby killers'. He asserted that the Republic of Turkey is 'not an ordinary state' and that no power can wag a finger at Turkey or its president. The statement, posted on social media, reinforces Erdogan's combative stance against international criticism, particularly in the context of his recent sharp rhetoric against Israel. This follows a pattern of Erdogan positioning Turkey as a defiant regional power.
