What is Anti-Turkish?

Although there is no clear definition of what makes something or someone "Anti-Turkish", there are possible clues:

  • Territorial claims and disputes connected with the modern state of Turkey: This is perhaps the most realistic of all fears, since there are actually middle eastern extremist groups (such as the PKK) which claim part or all of Turkey's land and sea.
  • Publications and articles which criticize Turkey and Turkish people to various extents. These include:
    • Traveller guides, especially if they conjure the existence of terrorism or contain too many negative warnings and stereotypes.
    • Newspaper articles, if making undocumented connections between international terrorism and the Cyprus dispute or the PKK.
