I don't think this will happen. In the end money talks. And that's a lot of money. Also the economy of Germany take a hard hit because of corona. But on the other side, the salvos Erdoğan is repeatedly launching against Europe don't really help to solve problems. I mean turkey is absolutely...

I'm wondering if tb3 will have the same dimensions as tb2. With heavier engines it looks like it will get bigger. But the success of tb2 was that it is a very capable drone in the tactical class. Very hard to detect. Tb3 should stay in this class. I'm curious what bayraktar will deliver. I also...

This is really disgusting. Beheading civilians in the streets is absolutely sickening act of violence and terrorism. Nobody should have a problem to call it what it is... Terrorism. The point I don't get is, why to blame Erdoğan? Because he called to boycott french products?? Come on don't fool...

Now that is really nice development. I think perfect suitable for the agean environment. This will really give headache to Greece navy. Is it confirmed that a Ada class can carry ulaq (maybe ulaq sida)?

I saw the title. It looks like things will get very ugly. I just can't imagine that Erdoğan will not answer to this provocation.

@xenon5434 good analysis of the situation 👍 They draw maps (Sevilla map). They want you to accept the map. They get offended when you don't accept their terms. They call u the aggressor. Short summary of the western hypocrisy. Although Erdoğan's "Eeeeeeey" Diplomacy didnt really help to solve...

TCMB didn't raised the interest rates today and dollar and euro skyrocketed to new heights. Sry but every child could forsee this reaction from the market if they didn't raise the interest rates (at least a symbolic raise). Now it's a matter of time till lira reaches the two digit threshold...

After the tweet from the Russian foreign ministry, it should be first priority to send all Russian soldiers back to their homeland. Of course only after Turkish personal is trained enough.

Although I don't want to interpret to much in one tweet, but for me this indicates that Russia never saw Turkey as partner. For the Russians the short time period of good relations had an expiry date from the beginning. They always saw Turkey as rival! It looks like Erdoğan in the beginning...

In this thread all subjects in relation to Turkish American relationship should be discussed. In my opinion the relationship will be tougher in the coming years. The s400 test in Turkey indicates that Turkey will not step back in the activation of the s400 system. Washington was very quiet...

It's nice to see that the findings going on in the black sea but in my opinion it wasn't necessary to make a show out of it. They raised my expectations, so I thought they would at least announce a finding like the last one or even more but it was just a fraction. For me short announcements for...

I love it that the head of TÜBİTAK has Humor and is not one of the dead serious (I almost sad boring) CEO's/Manager (you name it)! hopefully he'll continue 😂

I'm not an expert but I would not look at the absolut Numbers to determine if a currency is strong or not. Not a long time ago the lira looked like this: I think you have to put the currencies in relation to time to determine if a currency is strong or not. Let's take a look: Lira/yen: In...

I think it's heavily correlated to Libya where we want a resilient arrangement with the Russians. There were rumours that a breakthrough has been reached but nothing official until now.Therefore turkey doesn't want a escalation in idlib. But it's for sure that the idlib case is far from over...

Yes I also tend to believe that this weapon sale deal was one (main) reason for macrons hard stance against turkey.

What the heck. What is going on with macron?? I understand that politicians have to be flexible and sometimes has to change their minds but macrons change is utterly ridiculous. From war rhetoric which indicates france was ready to go to war with turkey to a new beginning without any...

Great to see this respectful competition. Political decisions only destroys this respect.

Hahahaha... I couldn't have said it better. Perfect summary of bloc 2!

Great summary of infos regarding countries and their intentions. But I believe bloc 2 is not a real bloc, more a loose union. Here turkey has to act very clever. Gunboat diplomacy will play a key role but isn't the answer for every problem.

Yeah I also think that's a fair proposal. Both countries could live with this solution. But you're right. Greece will not accept what is good for both countries as long as Europe is behind them and accept every utterly unrealistic demand from Greece. France is the key player here.
