I'm reading that that AK party is applying a censorship and are not really sending aid to help the people, is any of this true? Or is it just propaganda against AK party?
I'm fairly ignorant of polish/ukrainian cultural connections/history and what not. But it doesnt seem crazy to me that Poland and Ukraine may think to form one nation in the future, it may be the best way to hedge yourselves against Germany/Russian power.
Looking at the historic...
a similar earthquake ever hits istanbul and god knows how many hundreds of thousands maybe millions will be killed, the over construction/development in that city is criminal.
If so, Its a good position to take.
West/East talk is no more then a psychological trap. Its a bit like the Russians talking about euroasianist, which is just an acceptable name for non-white mugs to submit to a new Russian empire.
The americans use it against Turkiye to drag them into taking...
No such thing as west vs east, that's just a trap that the americans and russians use to coerce predominantly non-white mugs to do their bidding. Russia claims to be the east when in reality she is the same old white european west who invaded asia and annexed its lands and slaughtered its...
rationally once we got kicked out the f35 we should have never gone back for F16's. We basically sent the message that the americans can screw Turkiye and Turkiye will go back begging them anyway for inferior stuff. Americans must be laughing at AK party.
But it just proves that s400 decision...
It looks like he is intentionally destroying the image of the Turks in the world. We know he's not ethnically Turkish and we know most AK party members come from minority ethnicities who potentially all harbour historical grievances against the Turks, since at the end of the day the Turks walked...
As a result Turkiye on the global stage continues to lose.
PKK issue is a dead issue now, AK party turned it into a Quran issue. We lost this diplomatic game too.
As long as erdogan continues to portray Turkiye as some kind of islamofascist dictatorship, we might as well give up talking about...
The reality is that most people for most of history could not read nor write, that was for the ruling classes primarily or the class who had the money and status so their kids could learn. Rationally only the ruling classes could have turned these religions any religion into a state function...
To me it looks like during these winter months that its a strategy to let Russians waste their energies over fighting in the worst conditions. You look at the deliveries and planned delivers to come with tanks and what not, the backers of Ukraine made a call for Ukraine to play defensively until...
The Turks and Vikings kind of did the same thing, they conquer a region and then adopt the local culture. Turks pretty much did this everywhere they went. What kept the Turkish language alive was not so much the ruling class of the Turks, but the fact the common Turks spoke that language. A big...
Outside of more drafts and throwing more meat into the grinder does Russia have any other strategy available to them? Ukrainians as the months pass keep getting levelled up with more sophisticated military gear. This levelling up could go on for many years to come while conversely Russia started...
That corridor is also why Azerbaijan will never get the support the Armenia does despite Azerbaijan being pro west. They don't want a stronger Turkic nation/world to emerge in the region.
Which tells us Turks yet again which direction we should all be moving towards.
But i never thought about...
its funny you bring this up because i also feel their is a chance that when the war is over in Ukraine, the US may pressure Ukranian companies not to work with Turkish ones.
You have to keep in mind for the past 300 years the permier European nations had their way with everything, they are continuing to behave this way without realising that Asia is probably the future. Koreans with tanks, Turks with drones, etc step by step their monopolies are being chipped away...
I've been of the opinion for a long long time that the USA will always look to screw Turkiye. The problem is that doesnt mean you make it easy for them. Its like a football match the oppositions wants to score against you, that doesnt mean you take the ball and put in your own net.
