-Sultan Aliyev the Red-
Dictator, tyrant, brute, rude, and many more descriptions are all used for Aliyev. There are also Turks who join this chorus.
But the man is taking back Azerbaijani lands by the skin of his teeth.
If he didn't care about Karabakh, these definitions would have been in the opposite direction. EU politicians would have portrayed him as a potential new member of EU. This hypocritical, two-faced political system has always existed and will always exist. We must first have a united stand against this hypocrisy.
If he were willing to cede land to Armenia and turn into a subservient lackey no doubts the EU would have tagged Azerbaijan along the road of EU membership for the next 100 years. When you sell your own mother out the EU and euro origin dominated world they will portray you as good guys. We seen this trick played on Turkiye many times. But when you fight for your honourable interests and rights, you show integrity and principles and do not bow your head to these tyrants they portray you as the great devil.
Anyway the important thing for Turks to see is the "united agenda, from politicians to the media" only solution is that we unite, we support each other and we fight for each other. Otherwise this international organisation will look to bury us.
As Turks when we see a pig try to throw muck on Azerbaijan we have to speak, we cannot remain silent to the injustice. That's the bare minimum we can do.
And let me add another message for the Turkish Cypriots, do not be fooled by the EU, they want the entire island to come under their jurisdiction. Do not be fooled into the EU making you think you are different from the Turks in Turkiye, you are not and you never will and should never want to be. Just like they unilaterially side with the Armenian aggressor, they are against us in Cyprus too. This is why in over 50 years nothing can be diplomatically settled on the island.
And to the wider Turkic world, do you want your kids or your grand kids to be at the mercy of these people? Only solution is to work towards bringing all Turkic nations together.
And lets not forget our oppressed brothers and sisters in East Turkistan, whose suffering shames us daily. The only way this can be overcome for a united Turkic front no other way.
