Burden of an angry prime minister

Angry is a polite word to describe the mood of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. He is assaulting journalists, rebuking his own friends, humiliating his own supporters. Interestingly, this mad bull turns into a tame cat when speaking to and about foreign leaders. Recently, in Japan, we heard him denying Turkey's ambitions for greater regional and global activism. In Iran, together with his team of ministers, he posed in front of spiritual leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei like a humble student. In Germany, he behaved as if he had not been accusing Chancellor Angela Merkel of blocking Turkey's EU membership for years now.
