Turkey
The position Erdogan holds, in terms of strong electoral performances, as well as how he's acting now, probably finds a comparator in Viktor Orbán's actions over the last few years in Hungary. I fear that he'll continue, as per that precedent, to push through his and the AKP's plans without any real regard to either the protests, nor international condemnation of how things are being handled. Turkey not being in the EU makes this even easier for him (not that the EC were able to sway Fidesz at all)
