Probably his accent. He does say 15 just the final n is really soft. I wouldn't get too hung up over it, the whole report is supportive towards Turkey and her interests so anything that might appear malignant just take as a misunderstanding.
So much fake news as per usual. It's part of the YPG media strategy that's repeated through their fan accounts and the naive who fall for it.
Some of the fake stuff being spread through Kurdish nationalist account have been compiled here
I support his channel through Patreon, I've never done anything like that before but his reports are informative and balanced which is something you don't see much of these days.
Euphrates Shield was primarily targeted against ISIS. Jarabulus, Dabiq, El Bab were all held by ISIS and in El-Bab the fighting was so fierce many Turkish soldiers and FSA fighters died taking down ISIS. You probably dont know this since its clear your sources arent very accurate, but ISIS...
The S-400 isn't a scam. Russia isn't going to risk war with Turkey or ruin vital economic ties with Turkey over Afrin, that's all. I said in another thread that Russia will either grudgingly accept and wait for it to be over or they will low key try and trip up any advances. Using the s-400...
Come on guys, be realistic. Listen to some yous. Russia and Turkey won't go to war over Afrin, Assad is incapable without Russian backing, the existence of the YPG hinges on US support.
The only way Russia and Turkey will go to war is if Turkey attacks a Russian base or if Russia attacks...
I said elsewhere in the past that Turkey should have a military presence in Sudan and Tunisia. Strategically it makes sense.
The Red Sea carries a lot of trade from Asia into the Med. Turkey is making a lot of investments and Turkish economic growth relies on building economic ties beyond...
There are 3 countries that have been awarded with the engine maintenance contracts for the F35s. Turkey is the first, but only for a few years then the Netherlands and then Norway will do the same. What share Turkey gets will remain to be seen. Already the British parliament and media have...
It's sycophancy. Western editors and "experts" on Turkey like to conflate the PKK with the Kurdish people so they can narrate Turkey's war on the PKK network as Turkeys war on "the Kurds". This this offensive to the majority of Kurds who don't relate to the PKK's quasi nationalist, quasi...
Al-Shabaab agrees with you. Most weapons in Somalia don't enter through legal means so your ban would have no effect other than weaken the central government.
Depends what the goal is here. If it's to make a Turkish based car manufacturer then you would expect factories to be opened up around the world to meet customer demand. If a Turkish produced car takes off but only manufactured in Turkey, it would be less competitive in the N. American, East...
Definitely the government needs to support the project with financing and tax breaks will help. Turkey has the financial, technical and human resources to do it, they need to effectively channel those resources towards this project for it to work. This requires the governments assistance.
To...
Perhaps sympathy isn't the right word. More like seeing where they are coming from. Kim Jong Un is a spoilt little brat that needs a good smack but what abusive dictator doesn't?
My sympathy is with the people of Korea, north and south. They deserve better than being used this way from Kim and...
