Gareth Jenkins in Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty on President Erdogan and scapegoating
August 15, 2018: Gareth Jenkins was interviewed by Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty on President Erdogan and scapegoating in Turkey.
“A strongman particularly needs a scapegoat. Whether it’s another country, ethnicity, or religious minority, they’ve always had scapegoats to try to explain away the things that go wrong. It’s in their nature because the concentration of power is in their own hands.”
