[Hurriyet Daily News] The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
has become the biggest money laundering center in Europe, main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu has said, slamming the government for allowing vast flows of illegitimate cash into the country.

"Corruption, drugs, prostitution, money ... You can launder [money] in Turkey whenever you want. The name of these dollars is clearly ’error and omission,’" Kilicdaroglu said, addressing his party group at parliament on May 23.

The CHP leader slammed government for allowing the inflow of unregistered money that paves the way for money laundering.

"You issued the laws, you brought it about. You have acquitted bribery and now Turkey is one of the biggest money laundering countries in Europe," he said.
