Can’t wait to see Erdo attemptying invasion of Greece and him getting his ass rekt by everyone everywhere.
An autocrat waging for war to secure his power, where did Erdolf get that blueprint from?
The bus driver strikes back
Anyone know what happen when a NATO country invade another NATO country?
Like Turkey and Greece?
>Meanwhile, the Turkish president is also threatening to strike NATO ally Greece amid manufactured disputes over gas drilling, Cyprus, and the alleged “militarization” of Greek islands in the Aegean Sea — although the international economic and political cost of any such action makes it highly improbable.
If rumors are true Greece will be extending its maritime territory in the west and south off Crete in the coming months, while not the Aegean it would be interesting to see how Turkey responds, if all is well I can see Greece making further extensions elsewhere.
I hate Erdogan with everything, but the things written about our country in western newspapers always seem too biased to me. Erdogan is not the reason for every policy that the West dislikes about Turkey. For example, seeing the YPG as a formation equivalent to the PKK is something that is considered the same by almost the entire political spectrum. At the same time, the view that “Greece cannot arm the islands and extend its territorial waters to 12 miles” is much older than Erdogan, and long before Erdogan, the Turkish parliament passed a law that “makes a declaration of war obligatory if Greece extends its territorial waters to 12 miles”.
Like others, I generally see western articles about refugees as very biased. For example, I also read an article about Erdogan portraying Syrian refugees as the cause of the economic crisis. In reality, Erdogan is the most pro-refugee politician and pro-government channels are constantly pumping the view that “refugees make the economy grow”. The opposition here is anti-refugee because democratically the people don’t want that many refugees. The reason why Erdogan acts like a pro-refugee is because refugees are not wanted, the government is blamed for the refugees, and the refugees cause a decrease in votes in the AKP.
The portrayal of Erdogan as ultra-nationalist or oppressive against minorities such as the Kurds is also often untrue. Kurds, on the contrary, were treated much worse before Erdogan’s term, in some years speaking Kurdish was forbidden by law. It is true that Erdogan is authoritarian, but authoritarian towards the entire population, not authoritarian towards a particular group. In terms of nationalism, Erdogan is generally an Islamist, not a nationalist. In addition, people in Turkey who have adopted a secular and western lifestyle are more nationalistic, because when Atatürk founded the country, he argued that those who adopt the country’s modern values should also be nationalists. Erdogan is actually a very pragmatic politician and his only goal is to keep his support high. For this reason, he also acted like a nationalist in the past and held talks with Kurdish groups. But his main ideology is certainly not nationalism.
I definitely don’t like Erdogan, and he has done countless harm to our country and made our country authoritarian, especially in the last 10 years, but it seems biased to me that the West associates everything they don’t like about our country with him.
These people willing to sacrifice the lives of others just to retain power.
