Do you think there're actually GCs out there that think the French are actually there to protect them from Turks? I am thinking even they must know they're being used like a tampon.

Money laundering apparently.
Just as Hakan Fidan said on numerous occasions; "Regardless of the numerous reasons the EU states for not accepting Turkey into the EU such as the rule of law etc; As long as Turkey is a muslim nation, the EU will never accept it into its ranks no matter what it does"
Translation:
Turkey's EU accession remains far off. ''The differences in history, culture, and religion play an important role in Europe.''

And what’s new about that? That is precisely why Turkey should strategically turn its attention a little more towards the East and Far East, Nord and South – for example, towards BRICS+, the Turkic States, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and so on – and further diversify its economy and trade; at present, the ratio stands at 38% Europe and 62% the rest of the World.
The combined total trade volume highlights the long-term trend most clearly: around the year 2000, the ratio between EU trade and the rest of the world was exactly half-and-half (50:50). Since then, this ratio has steadily shifted toward roughly 38% EU to 62% rest of the world.
The aim should be to increase the volume of trade with Europe even further, whilst at the same time reducing the percentage ratio to 33-34% for Europe and increasing it to 66-67% for the rest of the world.
From then on, Europe will come to us and knock on our door; from then on, they will be downgraded strategically as Customers.
