>Process matters. A lot.
Within an established system.
Germany and Turkey have no common justice system or even a common foundation for the rule of law. Erogadan is playing outside the scope of any justice system, and so should Germany, because it holds all the power here.
After all. The only rules to The Great Game, are that those who follow the rules, lose.
- icebraining 11y agoInternational politics is a game of its own, where there are no rules, but actions still have consequences. Looking at it purely under the prism of internal law is simplistic.
- mpweiher 11y agoThis is happening within the German system of government, even if an outsider is bringing the suit. And that is exactly the point. And what I find so beautiful is that it manages to send both the "rule of law" message and the fk you message at the same time.
- lukeschlather 11y agoGermany and Turkey are both nominatively parliamentary republics. They are also members of the United Nations. So they both share a common justice system, and a common foundation for the rule of law. Obviously, there are limits to this, but it's a mistake to dismiss these things out of hand.
