Phone call between Abiy and Erdoğan re Somalia. We'll either see a deal neither side like but can live with or open hostilities.

"3rd round of mediation between Ethiopia and Somalia due tomorrow (Tuesday) in Turkiye has been postponed. No new date yet announced and no official reason yet for the delay. There has been more friction btw the 2 sides in recent weeks since the last round - after Egypt send military aid to Somalia But also this offer by Djibouti to Ethiopia to use one of its ports for access to the sea.

What do we import from Norway?
It doesn't have to be end products. Finland was supplying high quality steel needed for the defence industry for example. After Finnish restrictions were lifted, our weapon manufacturers took it as a very positive development.

Yes, don't buy important equipment from enemy .
Deception and sabotage in warfare is know for thousends of year in human history , this news with pagers remembers me the British inteligence in ww2 that replaced industrial diamonds with fake ones to german nazis 🤣.
Aslo during iraq-iran war there were sold defect weapons that can blow in your face . Turkiye should take a lesson and do the same with pkk but only do it in serials 🤣.
Those hezbollah must be low IQ people, they should know that are messing with among the best inteligence agency and every equipment and what they eat or drink should be checked mutiple times.
During cold war u can find those kind of sabotages selling fake technology or software ...

Here is some Anzac Day Solidarity "Bullshit"

Turks have themselves to blame for this. Stop being a bunch of uncle toms.
The Greek genocide claims are particularly baffling because it seems like most of the time they are referring to either the population exchange or civilian casualties during the Turkish War of Liberation. Which is massively dishonest because the 1st one isn't a genocide by any stretch of the imagination and the 2nd one pretty much always ignores the Turkish civilian casualties during the same conflict and means that basically any war where civilians were killed can be defined as a "genocide" which effectively makes the term meaningless.

It's like every single minority that existed during the Ottoman Empire's declining years has decided to jump on the genocide bandwagon to fish for pity points.

The problem was a lot of Turks kept on saying look it was the Ottoman Empire not us or Ataturk.

Now its the Ottoman Empire, Turks and Ataturk all complict in this bullshit genocide.

Well fck them. If the Turks did not fight back we would have been genocided and kicked out of Anatolia just like what happened to the Muslims in Spain.

With the Treaty of Sevres we would have ended up just like Palestine.

Ataturk led the defence of our nation while the Ottoman Empire collapsed and our future was uncertain.

Greeks and the Armenians along with their backers were perfectly fine with us Turks getting extinguished.

For them Turks and Muslims all needed to be wiped out.

Its not a genocide never will be. They tried to wipe us out and my ancestors fought back. They are crying genocide because they could not wipe us out.

Ataturk was not a Hitler he was just a man serving his nation. The genocide accusations are all bullshit.

Since the Turks of Turkiye could not be wiped out.

The Armenians tried to do it with Azerbaijanis and the Greeks tried to do it with Cyprus against the Turkish Cypriots.

Somehow they have the nerve to cry "genocide"

Good thing they are both weak ass nations. I hope Turkiye starts to make Turkish Cyprus a formidable military. They need to be armed to the teeth with best weapons same with Azerbaijanis.

Foreign policy should be geared for 3 of them to be strong and powerful.

If people wondering why they are pushing for electric cars here is the reason.

So electronic warfare can easily make them explode.

Turkey is trying to take a balanced approach towards both axises

The gas/oil purchased from the West will be resold to Europe at a higher price since the Turkish public will always end up using the super cheap Russian gas

Rumors indicate that some Western firms offered Turkey partial ToT in return for signing a deal with them in order for Europe to find a new alternative to precious minerals procured from China
