I think that some people here are delusional. There’s no way that Russia will try to invade a big country like Turkiye. Seriously the only country with this capability would be the US, but even then they will have to give everything they have, which will suffocate them for decades.
Nah you have to go beg Pakistan for nukes or something lol....
Honestly
@Khagan1923 reply earlier was quite good and spot on as to whats going on here.
Such replies anger the "
" virus emote
"suddenly translates hindi/urdu but im turk trust me!" guy who simps for Putin + Russia so hard (along with trifecta of China/Xi and generic extreme islamism)....along with similar simpleton archetype found in this thread in places more generally.
Putin knows his limits (a lot is already rearing up) though he is definitely going to try pushing them for the moment to save face on this buildup he's done and spent coin and used up significant geopolitical capital on.
Costs on Russia cannot be so casually dismissed. The oligarchs that run the show below/alongside the Tsar have their worries and concerns on their bottom line in the end.
People can see what it means w.r.t the neighbourhood (Turkey included) for themselves....I don't think there is some extreme thing thats going to break for extreme results.
