Erdogan could hardly be more critical of Israel regarding what it is doing in Gaza. Why depict him as pro-Israeli? What is the purpose?

Words VS actions I guess, most of Israel's oil comes through Turkey and trade with TR has been increasing.

Iran just wants to put TR in a difficult position

That just like Russian said everyone he dislikes a Nazi or American said someone a Tyrant.

What is the point of shooting yourself in the foot like this? both the opposition and the ruling party are playing stupid ideological games here. Opposition is pressuring the ruling party to throw away money, and the ruling party is like "look, we want to throw away money more than you; we will even pressure private sector to throw away money as well." Pathetic stuff.

NEW: 10 agreements signed during Turkish President's visit to #Hungary (understand 17 have been agreed) including:

- Defence industry (already several projects on the go, including joint production of armored vehicle)
- Nuclear power (both countries currently expanding nuclear power capacity, partly with help of Russian firm Rosatom at Akkuyu in Turkiye and PAKS 2NPP in Hungary)
- Civilian emergencies (Hungary one of first countries to send aid to Turkiye following quakes this year, two countries also working together on a general plan for the Organisation of Turkic States)
- Upgrade of bilateral relations between two states to Enhanced Strategic Partnership

A while back Ersat Salih's Turkmen group in Iraq unfurled pro-Iranian banners.

Eyes on the Kirkuk election.

I argued this a while back, but barring Barzani from Kirkuk played into Iranian hands. Talabani of PUK is currently leading by a very large margin according to the above.

This means Iranian influence and PKK in Kirkuk and Iranian supply lines/smuggling routes into Syria are secured.

Note the size of this crowd from this guy. Looks like bad news.

The President of Somalia called the family of the Turkish citizen killed in a car crash that involved the son of the President.

The President of Somalia:

“I am the President of Somalia, I am the father of Mohammed Hasan. I share your pain and offer my condolences. I want you to know that all our hearts are with you. We have full confidence in Turkish justice and the Turkish justice system, and our respect is endless. Everything will continue as it should, all processes, all procedures. I just wanted to express my feelings and condolences to you as a father. Also, my wife wanted to convey her wishes to you with the same feelings and wishes. That's the reason I'm calling. "We pray for God's mercy and want you to know that we are praying for him."

Still a honorable act. I hope his son will be given to the Turkish judiciary system so he can be punished accordingly.

President Erdoğan stated that in their last phone call, US President Biden told him,
"You take this (Sweden's NATO membership) out of the Parliament, in the same way, I will pass this (F-16 sale) from Congress."

The Foreign Affairs Committee of the Turkish Grand National Assembly will discuss Sweden's accession protocol to NATO on Tuesday, December 26, at 15:00.

The Foreign Affairs Committee of the Turkish Grand National Assembly will discuss Sweden's accession protocol to NATO on Tuesday, December 26, at 15:00.

Turkiye should act accordingly to already know and expect protocol of ally behavior.
I mean Turkiye should respect and follow the same Language in order to please West on this matter.
And Turkiye should "say sweden should became our NATO partner and we/Turkiye are making necessary steps". By saying this and acting as good ally and follow democracy, Turkiye MUST find and DO ANY opportunity to DELAY sweden to enter in NATO.
Proper period should be as example provided by usa -> normally 10 years

I am sure that sweden will be happy as this is their way they act when come to Turkiye

 

[Spitfire9]

Better to say "sweden should became our NATO partner and we/Turkiye are making necessary steps" and do what you say.
