I would say that I strongly disagree with both quoted statements.
I am from Romania, a country that had a long history of fighting with the Ottomans, and should theoretically harbor hatred towards Turks because of the history.
However, the exact opposite is true. Since we had more contact with Turks during our history, we know you better than we know other muslim nations, and we know that we actually have more in common with you than what separates us. The general feeling towards Turkey is quite positive, and we have Turkish people living in our country for centuries, and they are well integrated and seen no different than locals.
If you ask a random Romanian what he thinks about a Turk, the first thing that would come into mind is that the Turk is probably a business person, so he would mostly be perceived as someone above average in wealth, and as a competent person. The stereotype is quite positive in this case.
We also like to vacation in your country and we feel very at home, because there is a lot in common culturally, from food to music and laid back lifestyle.
We are clearly much more inclined to deal with Turks than with Arabs or Pakistanis. I actually find it very strange that a lot of Turks here complain about Europeans being very nasty against them, because from the place where I come from, Turks are by far the best viewed muslim people.
