The question is not about Turkey's differences with European Union. While it is definitely free to take its own course in terms of foreign policy since it has no commitments towards European Union. But Turkey is bound to certain commitment as a signatory to the NATO.
Turkish leadership is...
I would not be so wary of this new decision, Mr. Jigs. In fact, Turkey has made a remarkable decision that will only promote her image as a peace-loving and forward thinking country compared to the negative stereotypes that some agecies have against her and might shut the same up.
Today...
Though I disapprove of the taunting tone of his, the warning is something worth considering. Where as these figures officially mentioned? Any detailed economic analysis released by your government on such a high sum of losses? I am sure that if the damage has been so extensive, your government...
An unlikely scenario at this moment, considering that United States needs Pakistan's ground for supply routes while Pakistan needs American money to keep its present fragile economy intact and moving towards positive growth. I am aware oh much Pakistanis here despise the American alliance and to...
Now this is totally ridiculous. United States is going on the same path as what it accused its long-term rival Soviet Union to be: stamping out a speaker just for what he is saying.
By announcing the man-hunt on Assange just because he could pull down the pants of some American leaders...
Dear Sir,
I would like to point out something that I have been observing in the World Affairs section of this website. Posters whether you would call them 'trolls' or simply compulsive posters, seem to have turned it into an Indian-news only section. For non-Indians such as myself, some of...
Does this sort of a news piece warrant an opening of a new thread? World affairs in a defence forum means news of totally different sphere of understanding.
For the love of it, people do all sorts of things world around. I do not think that discussing an actress' personal choice and her...
If at all this piece of news is correct, I would say that the man needs to understand his surroundings well enough. Having money to annex territory is a thing of past and today's world has become different. As such the diplomatic issues of east Asia have suddenly taken a turn for the worst after...
Afghanistan is in a real mess and it is positive to let more countries take a noble effort in helping the country out of its miserable condition. A very strategic article but also it highlights the goodwill of both countries, which is only appreciable. Drugs are a menace here in Europe as well...
Well the Mediterranean is also seeing some serious action, is it not? But how does Turkish government especially the present one intend to make this happen since Cyprus is something else in the eyes of Turkey and someone totally different in the eyes of lot of world? Now two governments of the...
Mr. Qasim, establishing a theocracy of any religion or faith will not have perennial results. As you know, the Ottoman empire had some really bad time during its collapse. Establishing something like that and that too with a religious intention will naturally bring people of the region not in...
Not much has been in favour of the region for quite some time. Militancy has not ever spared the theocratic Iran under the excuse of sectarian discrimination. This should be an evidence that militancy and terrorism of any sort is not good in the long run.
Hope conscious efforts are taken to...
South Africans are smart indeed. I just wish that we acquire this beauty as soon as cleared by our government. 22 to 50 Gripens would be perfect replacement for our F-5s.
The point is, would you be willing to consider a particular side or alliance over choosing to remain non-aligned as you have always claimed to be? Your current non-affiliation with any faction of strategic significance has you bringing goodwill and friendship from countries all around the world...
Pardon me for intervening in this unrelated thread. I might not be aware of what politics goes on in your country (India here), but this person's association of extremist mentality with a specific religion is downright offensive and it is an irritant to Hindus worldwide including myself...
Considering the past designs of Russians, this one has turned out to be quite a looker compared to its Mi-17 and Mi-26 predecessors, I must say. Good effort by Russians.
