Turkey, on the other hand, is an absolute mess now. I take it they've completely abandoned their desire to access the EU? Because laws like this obviously mean they have absolutely no chance of entering, but they were still talking about it as recently as late 2018 IIRC.

That's far right for you. They've gained a foothold and try to roll back the progress. A culture war.

They will lose though. They always do in the end.
