When it comes to the Middle East, it has been a common occurrence to witness that Western governments occasionally accuse certain countries in the region of breaching fundamental human rights.

Current Trump's Middle East security policies are military-directed and the light footprint option seems the best strategy for future U.S. security policy.

Erdoğan keeps a tab on the EU's unfulfilled promises and talks about Europe's unreliability in the public. That's why, the image of him the EU leaders have is he is as an authoritarian Turk
