Thoughts?

The Kurdish Regional Government of Iraq closed the HDP office in Erbil. Party representatives were driven out of the city.

Albania is a weak country and Iam not denyin it. Sadly, as per the rules of the jungle, we have to bow to the strong

However, Albania isnt a part of the Turkic alliance but nations like kazakhstan and uzbekistan not stand side by side wih Turkey and recognise TRNC? Wasnt one of the alliance goals to protect the interest of the Turkic people? Yet they sell the TRNC to avoid antagonising US, France, and Russia?

When Russia entered its war, China and Iran aided it
When US concotted the Ukrainian war, all of the West aided it
When the Arabs initiated a lockdown against Qatar, most of the monarchies aided it
When Azerbaijan fought its war to reclaim its rights, Turkey aided it
When Turkey stands up for TRNC? Who will aid it I wonder?

The 11th summit of the Organization of Turkic States was held in Bishkek (Kyrgyzstan) on November 6. In addition to the heads of state of Turkey, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, the leaders of Hungary and Turkmenistan participated as observers, and for the first time officially the President of the TRNC Ersin Tatar.

When I saw the news I thought it was just a speculation, but saw that the pro-PKK ANF reported it so it may have some truth.

I am not shocked at all.

Let's see what the second Trump term will be like..

President Erdogan:

•We expect my dear friend Trump to abandon the wrong policies of the previous administration in his second term as president.

•We had a friendly meeting with Mr. Trump. They were having a family dinner at the time. Elon Musk and Musk's child were with him and that's how we met. We discussed the election process and the cooperation between Turkey and the US. He also made nice statements about Turkiye regarding the upcoming process.

•We invited him to our country. I hope he accepts our invitation and thus we strengthen the cooperation between Turkiye and the USA in a different way than in the past.

Dear Mr President
Your precious friend Trump, trumped over the country's economy with a single tweet for the poor handling of that priest twat. The Turkish Lira never recovered after that.
We won't forget.
I understand that sucking up to the newly elected PotUS is an essential part of the foreign policy of many countries but you need to drop the "dostum" part because I doubt that the feeling is mutual.
Regards

I suppose this is good news for us.

Уважаемый господин Президент!
Ваш драгоценный друг Трамп, переплюнул экономику страны одним твитом за плохое обращение с этим священником-придурком. Турецкая лира так и не восстановилась после этого.
Мы не забудем.

In 5 minutes you can make up such a vicious statement, in which you can declare both Trump and the United States in general as Turkey's enemy. (Does Turkey need enmity with a superpower that is an official ally?)
Even 5 years won't be enough to create a friendly relationship.
Incidentally, it was Trump who called Erdogan a friend for the first time. Erdogan only responded. So, it is not yet known who is sucking up to whom

so proud, he has the flag of "Kurdistan" behind him.

Its the flag of the KRG after all. Did you expect him to remove the KRG and Iraq flags and pledge allegiance to Turkey?
Barzani Junior is very useful to Turkey.

Was it Özdil who was saying that the plan might be to try and propagandize the populace that they will claim Turkey will expand or sth (into Iraq and Syria) to then give autonomy to the southeast?

Don't follow him but I can say he's not the only one saying that.

This maneuver posture reminds me of how the Seljuks and Ottomans dealt with the numerous Kurdish tribal families and clans.

But one fatal move can also spell disaster. The thing is the Kurds are so divided among themselves they spend more time fighting each other. Hence why Kurdistan will never happen as a nation.

Kurdistan has always been used as geographic term. Geographical terms change over time. People really think it means nation state which is not true.
