They are frustrated because in the end they need them as an ally. Otherwise, Turkey would have already been cut out due to their multiple tantrums.
Problematic ? We were the best ally all the time. Korean War , Cuba Crisis , Gulf War , Afghan War , Bosnian War, Syrian War,Ukranian war etc.. We paid huge price for their shit. better they shout the fuck their mouth. We are not their vassal.
Yep. Now imagine them as a neighbor
“Problematic,” like someone caught Erdogan saying the n-word.
guess who was invited to speak with POTUS back when he was still banned from being the PM in 2002:
> President George W. Bush meets with Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Chairman of Turkey’s AK Party during National Security Advisor Condoleeza Rice’s meeting in the Roosevelt Room, Tuesday, Dec. 10, 2002. Also pictured is Secretary of State Colin Powell. ‘We join you, side by side, in your desire to become a member of the European Union. We appreciate your friendship in NATO. You’re a strategic ally and friend of the United States, and we look forward to working with you to keep the peace, ‘ said President Bush during the brief meeting.
