But this was in response to Turkey telling the Dutch ambassador to stay out:

After which Turkey’s president, and quite possibly the anti-Christ, Erodogan called them NAZIS!!!
The Netherlands barred a plane carrying Turkey’s foreign minister from landing to stop him from addressing a political rally Saturday in Rotterdam.
The Dutch government announced that Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu’s flight permit was revoked amid concerns over public order at the expected large gathering of Turkish expatriates.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan reacted angrily to the news, comparing the Dutch government to Nazis.Addressing crowds at an opening ceremony in Istanbul, Erdogan said: “They are timid and coward. They are Nazi remnants and fascists.”
Earlier this week Erdogan had angered German Chancellor Angela Merkel by making similar remarks about Nazism in her country.

SO Turkey has been sending out diplomats to rallies of Turkish ex-patriots in Europe to get support for a vote on April 16th that would consolidate even MORE power in dictator Erdogan’s hands. Some European countries are resisting this, and thus, we have the great Dutch-Turkey row of 2017!!!
And now there are anti-Turkey protests in Rotterdam:
