Erdogan snubs/ridicules von der Leyen @ meeting in Turkey

Von der Leyen is a smart and seasoned career politician. She should be expected to handle such cheap provocations professionally - and I'm glad she did. No reason to throw a tantrum à la Trump.

are you willing to die as a soldier to act upon your demands? i only highlighted the most obvious one but all of your suggestions are frankly out there. turkey is not a colony that you can dictate terms too, they can punch back

Well just execute economical sanction. If we sanction Russia, we should sanction Turkey.

Imposing economic sanctions is a possible reaction to blatant violations of international law (Russia).
Imposing economic sanctions is NOT a possible reaction to not be offered a chair (Turkey).

Get real. This is politics - not kindergarten. There is a major difference between the illegal annexation of Crimea and a breach of diplomatic protocol.
