To avoid giving him a trial, they listed him as Turkish in the official documents. EU citizens get a hearing, a court, the right to defend themselves. Non-EU citizens don't. So they erased his German citizenship on paper. No trial. No conviction. No charge. 27 foreign ministers made the decision. No court oversight. The EU itself admits sanctions target legal behavior: journalism they want to suppress. He can't leave the country. Can't pay rent. Can't pay lawyers.
