Erdogan is solving his problems by auctioning off the Brotherhood

Recep Tayyip Erdogan has a big problem. He has never held on to a specific policy, but rather let his outsized dreams take hold of him at a certain times, the same way his Muslim Brotherhood roots with all their backwardness and illusions control him

It is not clear if Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will succeed in the pursuit of his policy which is based on auctioning off the Muslim Brotherhood members who had sought refuge in his country and under his wings. This scepticism stems from the doubts about whether the Brotherhood is a commodity suitable for sale and barter. Such a policy could only achieve purely tactical results in the service of a Turkish president who faces many crises, each of which has its own character.

But the bigger problem faced by this man remains his untrustworthiness. Erdogan has never held on to a specific policy but rather let his outsized dreams get hold of him at a certain times, the same way  that his Muslim Brotherhood roots with all their backwardness and illusions control him today.
