Aw, c**p. Erdogan is slave to Qatar, let's hope he's out of power soon or Qatar's influence is diminished.

Regardless, it's stupid to give them more ammunition and us less ways to defend ourselves. What you are proposing is the exact same reason that Turkey is in such deep s**t geopolitically today.

Uh, I'm pretty sure at one point Erdo wanted to sell TB2 to KSA. The modernization process also started before him.

Of course they won't. NATO, at most, will supply weapons to Ukraine and slap some more sanctions on Russia (or more specifically, on certain individuals in Russia, because the sanctions don't target Russia's economy as a whole) which most Russians will barely notice anyway and then watch as...

That's...not what happened. You've got cause and effect somewhat backwards. The US didn't really care about Turkey rising, what the US cared about was Turkey rising while aligning itself in a possibly hostile manner to the US. It's kind of difficult to argue that the US' increasing support...

He will take votes from Haftar, so that's good. He might not be as hostile to Turkish interests. The EU might support him because he might bring stability and is Western-educated and is not a wannabe dictator like Haftar. As for whether he's a good or bad choice for the people of Libya, I will...

Yeah, I've seen videos of Turkish police units. The Turkish army is generally well-disciplined and professional from what I see but the police seem like they gathered a bunch of village dopes, gave them 1 month of training, handed them some guns and told them to go nuts. The amount of tactical...

Eh, I'm not too keen on us pushing into Zangezur. I don't want us to stoop to the Armenian level of claiming territory. I mean, my family comes from Zangezur so it'd be cathartic, I suppose, on a personal level but on a national level, it is disastrous and frankly I want us, as a people, to be...

He is. Mentioned it before but this is good news for Turkey, since Trump is a hell of a lot less hostile than Biden's cabinet. It's also good news for the US since the country has gone to massive s**t since the Democrats won and I am genuinely not sure if Biden will hold out until 2024. We...

Wrong thread, champ. Although it's kind of funny to me how Tigrayans ended up being the rebellious class when the entire reason they were pushed out of the Ethiopian political scene is because for pretty much most of Ethiopia's existence as a state, Tigrayans were the upper-class running the...

Bots are out in full force copy-pasting the same exact comment a dozen times.

I don't think the US really intends to fight Turkey because there are US soldiers operating on Turkish soil already as part of the American base. You still factor into NATO defense calculations, believe it or not. And if you really want a deterrent, no air force superiority or anything of the...

He needs to distance himself from the Turkish side (at least openly) in order to avoid spooking ethnic Bulgarians. And AKP needs to tell the media to shut the hell up and only cover him a a good candidate for Bulgaria as a whole instead of "the Turkish guy". As for his policies, my knowledge of...

[insert very rude swear word here] Armenia, hope their misfortunes continue for many, many decades to come. LMAO and now Armenians are trying to claim that the man was just trying to take revenge for his plumber brother that was apparently killed by Azerbaijani servicemen a while ago. Despite...

It'd be helpful to get some concrete details on the operation of TB2s in Ukraine. Aside from bombing those artillery positions, I've read that they were being used for reconnaissance for many months now. Even read a report that the Russian forces apparently shot a couple down in Crimea, although...

If there are records kept of the number of Syrians and other migrants who got citizenship, you could use that to trace the ones that got it post-circa-2015 if you get into power and revoke all of them. Maybe make certain exceptions for well-behaved, well-integrated refugees and migrants but...

I think this is assuming the other countries don't have citizens that spend outrageously. Singling out Turkish people for this and then claiming that this somehow requires that they be kept in borderline poverty is ridiculous. Turkey, like it or not, requires imports for many basic goods. It...

I've mentioned this before but I don't think any of these designs should be called "flying cars" unless they actually operate as a car that can also fly. Just call them "multicopter for personal transport" or something.

I'm not sure what his point is. Arabic alphabet is better because it's a complex collection of squiggles and therefore requires more brainpower? In that case why not adopt Japanese? They've got three!

No, it will actually solidify's Turkey's good reputation in the eyes of Poland as the only one that responded to Polish concerns.
