Just like Trump said "everything macron touches turns to shit".

Maybe the crazy thing about England's tagging along with American foreign policy is that most people in England are against it. I remember the iraq invasion, i think there was even a 1 to 2 million man march in London against it as well as protests throughout the entire country. The grand...

I would interested to know if anyone outside of the western sphere pays any attention to what america has to say? I suspect the general perception globally is that america is the worlds primary trouble maker?

I don't expect India to ever have good dealings with Erdogan. Half the Turkish nation doesnt even have good relations with him. As for clout, i always looked it simply as Turkey having good relations with Pakistan and that Turkey could potentially operate as an honest inoculator between the...

Would be a desperate move considering how terrible Russian logistics are and the fact they are struggling to hold their front lines in the east. Just seems like Putin is throwing the dice hoping to land a double 6.

There will be no peace via discussions, not with these fanatical insecure cowards, who starts wars, lose wars and then play the little victim. The entire aim should be to create conditions to win us our rights. Look at the nations engaged in imperial endeavours, if they can't get what they...

because under erdogan we are a cowardly nation, so russians exploit it every time and the more erdogan opens Turkey to Russia the easier it is for Russia to attack us. don't worry though, the Turks will forget this incident very quickly. Just yesterday they were celebrating and talking about...

No, I just find it interesting that potentially 600 years before the Ottomans arrived on the Island a Turkic dynasty had already taken the island and potentially settled Turks on it.

I'm fairly ignorant of Pakistan/India relations and history. All i know about India is that she has certain domestic issues like most nations. But India despite its massive size and despite being a nuclear power it never gave off the impression it was looking to start a fight with anyone. Even...

If there is one thing Turks know all about its the good cop, bad cop routine. The problem we have is when the USA plays bad cop we either fall into the lap of Russia or some other American lackey in Europe, or vice versa. Also the aggrandizement is generally something that occurs in people that...

Its basically an insult, bidan is calling pakistan a banana republic insinuating the madness that such a backward and unstable country has nuclear weapons. He's not saying its dangerous in the sense that its a strong and organised nation with a great economy and industry.

Russians also fell for the propaganda about a decadent west.

The mediator role is purely symbolic, it really means nothing. The war will be decided by the results on the ground and i suspect when their is a final settlement america will be the main oversearer along with a representative from the EU. We will be their but in a much less significant...

Its not though and even it is say now, this status of war with Ukraine wont last forever. Likewise if it were the only door, this would force the europeans to open the other doors to remove Turkeys advantage against them. So for Russia by using Turkey she gains leverage and options for herself...

Just like when people said buying the s400 would gain us favour with Russia and then they bombed our troops anyway. And despite all our dealings including letting them build our first nuclear power plant, our government had to hide it from the public. We already have pipelines from Russia...

The downside of indiscriminate murdering of civilians by Russia. Putin shows himself to be a beast as one proud poster on here put it, unfortunately for Putin it only leads to more international outrage and with it more advanced weapon supplies to Ukraine. When you consider the Russian...

Just as long as Russia is not the primary supplier. If you didnt turn yourself into a gas hub, you turned yourself into a russian supplied gas station in which russia has many to the west, south and east of her. If she shuts you down for a while, it wont effect her. If you shut it down it only...

None of these deals help us in the long term. The more you make yourself dependent on Russia the easier it is for them to manipulate us. Europeans learned this recently with the gas politics. If you want to make deals, the deals need to give us leverage not Russia. For example you buy more gas...
