Turkiye-EU relationship is like a way of forced marriage. Neither wants to be together anymore but nobody puts into words...
I think we should end this journey and look at our own way.

Just for dont be alone.One of the most toxic relationships in geo political history.
Just for dont be alone.
If Not with Eu We have to with Arabs...
The Turkic world is too weak.
Keep on the bid with EU seems have some economic benefitWe can trade and hold relations with both worlds but we also need to draw a line.
We aint apart of Europe neither are we apart of the Arab World.
I agree the Turkic World is weak as fck. It will take centuries to build up our own bloc.

Turkey receives payments from the EU budget as pre-accession support, currently 4.5 billion allocated for the 2014–2020 period (about 740 million Euros per year) and some others.
But that s bad to our mind.
Pro-EU and Pro-Arab Turks fight each other every day.
Modernization is not Europeanization
Islam is not Arabization
But they keep confusing the two
We are in weaker position,Economically and promotionallyI cant blame them to be honest the Euro is a pretty strong currency.

Every rumors that we drop EU will be reported as we became Sharia law country.Every time Erdogan say anything to EU results Lira and our economy fall
It's ironic that Westerners keep speaking up for communist China
Turkey will not give up interests and Sovreignty to join EU but also cant say that break up or give up join EUThe West propped up China against the Soviet Union.
Turkiye position has always been weaker regardless of Erdogan or not.
EU basically saying give up your interests and Sovreignty to become apart of the EU which means basically giving up Cyprus and the Caucausus which ever places you have interests.
I doubt Turkiye will ever give up Northern Cyprus.
Cyprus easily got into the EU with the most fraudulent bs on the table.
Brexit happened because the British refused to hand over complete control to the EU.
EU is also set introduce the most draoconian laws in trying to impose electric on its population.
Is the EU political or economic. Main aim was always economic cooperation now that was thrown out the window especially regarding Turkiye.

Do we? Culture ministry repairs some very old churches from time to time. Apart from that, i'm not aware of any taxes going towards them. They have their own vakıfs which oversee the land and buildings they own like churches and schools.Why we have to feed them by tax

The Church of Greece (Greek: Ἐκκλησία τῆς Ἑλλάδος, romanized: Ekklēsía tē̂s Helládos, IPA: [ekliˈsi.a tis eˈlaðos]), part of the wider Greek Orthodox Church, is one of the autocephalous churches which make up the communion of Eastern Orthodox Christianity. Its canonical territory is confined to the borders of Greece prior to the Balkan Wars of 1912–1913 ("Old Greece"), with the rest of Greece (the "New Lands", Crete, and the Dodecanese) being subject to the jurisdiction of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. However, most of the dioceses of the Metropolises of the New Lands are de facto administered as part of the Church of Greece for practical reasons, under an agreement between the churches of Athens and Constantinople. The primate of the Church of Greece is the archbishop of Athens and All Greece.
I think you need to raise this with MFA. Do you really think that Bartholomew is doing all this for years without government acceptance or approval?Patriarch acts like as of he owns a vatican city.
Who allows him to visit political leaders in the first place?
Diyanet is not allowed at all. Why is the Patriarch given this right?
His a turkish citizen and his under Turkish jurisdiction. Which means also he has to represent the Turkish flag.
Visiting foreign leaders is for the President, Vice president and Foreign affairs minister.
