Turkey had to be paid off to accept danish secretary general of NATO

Again it is proven that turkey is no EU or european country. Being member of NATO it blocked the Danish candidate until turkey received its ransom price.

Turkish generals were catapulted in the highest NATO positions and denmark had to reduce its freedom of speech by restricting islam sensitive outings in the danish press and allowing muslim TV broadcasts in denmark, things before strongly rejected by the danish people.

Proof again that Turkey is no european country that follows the european traditions of freedom of speech and enlightment.
