Why would Iran try to hit US mainland if there is Israel? Hitting Israel will hurt US more than getting hit on own land.
The world is fkng tired of US wars.
People still talk as if Erdogan is the initiator of this idea. When Erdogan comes with this, it is about corruption but when a CHP'li comes with it (rahmetli Ecevit) it is a thorough idea. This also explains the attitude of the opponents. Absolutely not objective but purely based on feelings of...
Sanki bir bok yazdin da bir seyleri anlamamizi bekliyorsun.
You write a whole text but the content is zero. This is always the case of CHP heads. They never come up with decent arguments. Everything is based on their hate about the AKP. Nothing more.
Not even a single shame about writing...
How you mean because of new pipes? Which pipes you mean? Gas to Europe? First of all most of the tankers are oil tankers and EU is not the only custommer of Russia. Secondly, you indicate that the number of ships that have passed through Istanbul has decreased. It was 40k in 2017 and 45k in...
Alexandroupolis port an alternative to what? What does this have to do with Bosphorus strait? Why should the dangerous artctic route be an alternative for a much more beneficial route via Black Sea to the Mediterranean Sea? On average 3 million oil barrels pass through the Bosphorus strait per...
You have no clue how horrible the Bosphorus strait is for huge vessels. They will automatically choose the canal because it is much more favorable for their transport time and also in terms of risks. Besided this, Turkey creates another leverage over the US and Russia. Two birds, one stone...

Those who oppose the project cannot even come up...
Turkey cannot get everything of course. Most importantly, a diplomatic solution has now been reached. Turkey is partly getting its desired safe zone. In cooperation with the Russians, the refugees will be sent back safely and both countries will jointly patrol the area. YPG / PKK will be placed...
What's the problem? Before the operation started, Turkey had urged the US many times to clear YPG from that area. The US refused to do this and Turkey started its military operation. The US has now basically taken a step back. The sanction threats is only meant not to damage the image of the US...
China also condemns Turkey.

It looks like Russia is taken control over Manbij. Manbij is important for Turkey. What i dont understand is why didnt Turkey start its operation by taking Manbij or moving towards Manbij while the American soldiers...
A war is something that is held between two or more countries. Turkey is not waging a war against YPG but is conducting an anti-terror operation to create a safe zone. It has been enough that the Kurdish people are constantly being used by different countries for their own strategic reasons. So...
