Recep Tayyip Erdogan again attacked Emmanuel Macron on Monday, calling on the European Union to stop the French president's "hate campaign" against the Muslim community.

He also denounced the "fascism" and the "Nazism" of certain European countries.

The escalation continues between France and Turkey.

While attacking the "mental health" of Emmanuel Macron, Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Monday called on the European Union to stop "the campaign of hatred" of the French president towards the Muslim community.

"European officials must say 'stop' to the hate campaign which is led by Macron," said Recep Tayyip Erdogan in a virulent speech in Ankara, which risks further fueling tensions between the two countries.

Muslims compared to Jews before 1939

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan also compared the treatment of Muslims in Europe to that of Jews before World War II, accusing some European leaders of "fascism" and "Nazism".

"A lynching campaign similar to the one against European Jews before WWII is being waged against Muslims," ​​Recep Tayyip Erdogan said in his speech in Ankara.

For his part, Emmanuel Macron has decided to retaliate against the Turkish president, with a series of measures in preparation to dissuade Ankara from continuing this escalation.
