Excuse me for this post but I want to describe what I met before. Now I have many friends in Turkey: archeologists, writers. Now, when I am living in USA.
But before I lived in Ukraine, worked in big furniture store. The group of Turkish men visited this store and said loud to all us, mostly women: Hi, dogs! We were very surprised, asked them: Why dogs? And they replied: Because you are not Muslims.
I remember horrible, insulting behavior of Turkish owners of business in Kharkov grocery markets and big market Barabashova, their relation to people who they hired and customers.
Of course, I don't mean every person from Turkey. But all what I saw myself during some years in Ukraine was enough to understand that I will never visit Turkey and conversation with person from Turkey can be only professional.
