    Well, all I can say is that universities are like that all around the world, filled with foreign students and have other criteria to measure a foreign student’s aptitude and conformity.

    True. But it’s gonna be a legit short to medium range commercial jet airliner, not a very small twin turboprop plane for short hauls. Mr. Kotil has mentioned about this projects many times.

    It’s only logical and make sense too. But Mr. Erdoğan is known to defy logic in the sense that he considers such acts makes him above logic. That’s why we sometimes get edgy when he declares a project ☹️

    He is literally agitating people to stir up their sentiments to the point they will have cried for Turkey’s direct involvement. What he does not know and never understood for two decades now is that such populist acts are below the president of Turkey. Shame.
