France won't threaten Turkey with nukes.
Financical and energy card can easily block TurkiyeNo, but I believe the threat of escalation with Russia who has nukes is what reduces the EU response with weapons and support for Ukraine
Cardin replaced Menendez, possibly due to seniority of age.Just took a look at Menendez's probable replacements. Two most likely are Ben Cardin and Jeanne Shaheen. Cardin spoke about Kavala back then but he seems much calmer. Shaheen co wrote the bill that removed Turkey from the JSF and also wrote extensively about Op. Peace Spring. Cardin is set to retire in 2025.
Not great, not terrible.

In March 2023, an arbitral tribunal finally issued an award in the first dispute in Iraq’s favour. The tribunal also ordered Turkey to pay Iraq approximately $2 billion in damages, and also ordered Iraq to pay around $500 million in damages to Turkey for a variety of costs and expenses. The second dispute for the period 2018-2022 is expected to lead to a similar financial award in Iraq’s favour, without any corresponding amount in Turkey’s favour.
As if that wasn’t peculiar enough, Turkey also stated behind the scenes that it would not reopen the pipeline until a number of conditions were met, including that Iraq abandon its second claim for 2018-2022. The closure means that Iraq has lost approximately $6bn in lost profit, an amount that it is probably entitled to recover from Turkey under the ITP Agreement. At the time of writing, the pipeline remains closed.
“Within this week, we will start operating the Iraq Turkey pipeline after resuming operations, it will be able to supply half a million barrels, almost, to global oil markets”, Bayraktar said during the ADIPEC conference in Abu Dhabi.
Turkey has been a reliable transit route for oil and gas, he added.
