Reportedly, in a private meeting with Republican bigwigs, Bolton told them he believes Trump gave Syria and the Kurds to Erdogan for personal or business reasons having to do with him or with Turkey.
This ignores that he gave Syria and the Kurds to the Russians.
Bolton told the gathering of Morgan Stanley’s largest hedge fund clients that he was most frustrated with Trump over his handling of Turkey, people who were present said.
Noting the broad bipartisan support in Congress to sanction Turkey after President Recep Tayyip Erdogan purchased a Russian missile defense system, Bolton said Trump’s resistance to the move was unreasonable, four people present for his speech said.
Bolton said he believes there is a personal or business relationship dictating Trump’s position on Turkey because none of his advisers are aligned with him on the issue, the people present said.
