    Sweden does not want to join Nato and knowingly turns a blind eye to provocative actions. It is afraid of Russia, but at the same time it does not want to fight for Nato. It does not want to become a US base state like Greece.

    NATO had long been loosing its main altruistic goal. There is no place globally where NATO show itself to stabilize the situation but rather to improve destruction impacts. US now led by unfortunate potus. EU economics are worsen everyday, while Asian countries are gradually seized block of global incomes. TLDR, BRICS is the prospective new block.

    Imagine you have one of the most-deadly terrorist organization in your land that you have been fighting for decades and a NATO candidate country supports that terrorist organization and give permanent residences to it's convicted member's, would you allow that country to be a member of NATO ?

    Turkey will not be allowed to Join the EU anytime soon for many reasons as they do not currently meet all the criteria to join primary because of their human rights record and erdwan is a dictator

    News Item “Russia expands unfriendly countries list” ! This is insane and extreme madness ! After all, the world is not in the 18th or 19th centuries but in the 21st century. Geopolitics have changed and enlightened foreign policy and relations do not have friendly or unfriendly countries so to speak. One country could be friendly for a time and become unfriendly within a short period. The enlightened countries manage their foreign relations accordingly by trying to friendly to all neighbors and the other countries in the world. The Bismark or Tallyrand way of doing things do not apply in the present century as the world marches towards digitization, bitcoin AI and a plethora of other scientific innovations. Foreign policy as set out in “The Prince” by Niccolo Machiavelli or Kautilya’s “Arthashastra” (Economics) have no bearing in today’s world other than being for rhetoric. Does old Poot
. think of himself as Czar Put-in line with Peter the Great or wants to be compared to Catherine the Great. If that is the case old Poot., has another ‘think’ coming his way. It appears old Poot’s thinking is quite primeval, primordial and primitive and this ‘maddo’ does not understand the modern world and is obsessed with raw, unchecked power without any consideration for other human beings including his own countrymen. What are the deep sleepers in the Duma doing. Do they want to join “Armageddon” in the company of “Comrade” Put-in or be more civilized in their behavior towards the rest of the humanity including their own countrymen whose welfare should be their concern not Put-in’s ever increasing destructive “power hunger”.

    I'm a Turk and I think that Erdogan is doing all of this for support from younger generation (boomers are already supporting him) but younger generation already knows that he is a horrible leader anyways. Sorry for the trouble guys. We dont like him anyways and I'm sure you guys don't either

  29. @shandrakor4686

    February 10, 2024 at 3:20 pm

    I'll have to see if I can find out more on 7:10 as that certainly looks like Erdogan is snubbing a handshake there, might be late to the party if this was a while ago.

    The USA will allow Turkey to get the F-16’s that the Turks ordered years ago plus massive aid
