I think their real bet is that the USA will defend them. Hence why they have given so many bases to the USA, its not Russia its for Turkey.

No doubts fear mongering over Turks has been good business for the insanely incompetent and corrupt political class in Greece, which is really just 3 corrupt families who change roles every other election. Its the great big distraction that allows them to get away with all the domestic failures...

No Turks are taking these statements seriously, they just find them insanely hilarious. But its not the same of erdogans statements, the Turkish military has engaged in syria, its never come suddenly one night but its came multiple times and even in the east of syria when both Russia and the USA...

For Ukraine to really end this war they will need long range air defence systems and rocket artillery to that goes upwards of 300Km. But i keep asking myself when is Turkey going to send the Akinci with cruise missiles to Ukraine? It seems like we are reaching a point where Russia can be totally...

I think ultimately russians are going to find themselves removed from most regions they invaded. The world is pretty much sick of them and their hostility. They are already getting culled in Ukraine, they shouldn't be so sure that Ukraine is going to be the end of it, it may just be the start...

Only a muppet could believe the PKK will be gone, they are not gone in Iraq or Iran, but they are going to be gone in the nation that was most friendly to their cause. Don't forget how Ocalan was given VIP status by the Assad regime in the past. We quite rightly could have gone to war with Syria...

had that been the other way around the russians would have hit the position.

thats the problem with this administration that even when you see really bad deals, you half worry that this government takes it. Just like the terrible refugee deal that screwed Turkey and took away her only leverage to deal with syria. But Turkey filling with migrants is good for AK party they...

He won't, its a dumb deal where Turkey loses every card she has while she took massive costs and blows over the syrian civil war. There is no way in hell that can be a deal, has to be made up.

only reason i see for any reluctance is that the USA wants the war to grind out making the costs and deaths higher to Russia. they played a similar game over Syria constantly using the excuse they couldnt strike assad because of formidable Russian air defence systems, but then it turned out a...

The reason the YPG has such a strong hold in Syria is because the Assad dynasty gave them safe haven and are they used as a card against Turkey. Assad doesnt want to get rid of the YPG, that is your first mistake in thinking. Assad and the YPG see Turkey as the bigger enemy then they do each...

In many ways I'm quite disconnected from Turkey but i have noticed that the educated youth of Turkey generally are moving away from the religion. But I've only really noticed this in some of the big cities. Do we have any real data as to the extent in which the religion is growing or receding?

gradually we need to move away completely from american systems.

One of the most morally bankrupt nations on earth.

Russians are very good liars, nearly everything they say is a lie and told in such a way to make themselves always sound much better then they actually are. Just think about how they hyped their own military hardware before this war as a good example. They can spew all this anti-western...

most major nations in europe discovered important people part of the russian payroll, meanwhile in Turkey we have not even found one, a nation that has time and time again been infected by outside forces like feto.

talks are basically wasting time for the Turkish side. But its AK party so rinse and repeat.

Russians like to erase the critical western support they received in many of their historic victories. Russia has had more western support then most nations on earth during her history.

Its also worth keeping in mind whoever you are in this world that Turkey succeeding in this project will also benefit you. Why? Because with a Turkish option out on the market it makes the alternatives cheaper and easier to obtain and if they won't sell you it well the Turkish option is also...

Rationally as the Turkish military industry develops and as the Turkish population born in the west starts to improve their position, the onslaught against us is going to increase. When AK party and FETO were in bed together and arresting Turkish patriots everything in the media was rosy about...
