oh little commies! they would welcome russian bear.

Turkiye is now an integral part of NATO. It's a good thing - why are people protesting? Finland and Sweden joining NATO was always an ambition for NATO and Europe in General.

I thought Turkey doesn't need NATO to protect their motherland from Russians. No?

I am serious, it seems Turkey drones, and equipment should be good enough.

Why keep Incirlik? Why Turkey needs Yankee troops at home?

Turkish drones are built with many parts from other NATO members (such as Canada).

If Turkey was attacked no one would come to its defence. Its not white not blonde and not Christian Jewish or atheist and there are no nazi divisions in the Turkish military to get nato support

That's true. Even sad is that Russia won't come to Turkey's defence after the Ukraine issue. Turkey is far more isolated than it thinks. It doesn't have China, Russia, Europe, Israel, or America on its side. Canada had even blocked selling drone equipments for Turkish drones when Turkey went into Syria.

When things get serious, Turkey would have no to call. Those who think that NATO would help Turkey in a serious war are a sleep. Recently they started isolating themselves from their eastern "allies" as well (Pakistan, etc).

 

[Muhammad Saftain Anjum]

People who think NATO will not come to protect Turkey are insane.
Russia making Turkey unstable and bringing chaos on the doors of Europe will not be acceptable to NATO and they will come to stop Russia.

Turkey no matter how secular they are, they are Muslim in Christians' eyes.
Turkey no matter how religious they are, they are secular in ME's eyes.

Turkey no matter how westernized they are, they are east block in westerners' eyes.
Turkey is no friend of Russians, nor Chinese, nor Iranians, nor Yankees, nor French, nor British.

I am no mocking Turkey. I am just saying the fact in my opinion.

Turkey has its own philosophy for survival. I won't judge.

I would say Turkey has done well on one important thing, milking the west during Cold War, getting itself industrialized.

Turkey holds control over the straits and is another front into Europe.

It's baseless to think NATO won't help them if any war does initiate. NATO assets are fully deployed and integrated into the Turkish military infrastructure for a reason.

But this is a baseless discussion, because there's no party wanting conflict there except PKK.

Turkey's NATO membership provides a huge deterrent against attacks on its soil. But even in case of agression vs Turkey it doesn't need NATO to come and protect it because it is a country of nearly 100 million population, the vast majority of our people are ultra nationalists or neo-Ottoman and we're armed to the teeth.

So we dont need Nato, Russia or China blablabla Türkiye is strong, brave and ready.

Turkish defence industry already replaced those flir systems with domestic systems such as Aselflir or Cats etc the Canadian company went bankrupt after the Canadian gov imposed sanctions on Turkey. They basically shot themselves in their own foot.

 

[Foinikas]

Like in Greece,even if Barcelona loses to Real Madrid,they will protest against NATO and American Imperialism.

True even in WW1 when there was no any alliance with europe Brits and France came to assist Turkish forces against Russia because it is not in their interest for Russia to get control of the straits.

Agree.
Culture is very important. Some nations are easier to conquer, they are mentally weak or has an inferior complex.

Some nations and societies are very hard to conquer, such as Vietnamese, Turks, Russians, Afghanistan, Pashtuns. Those nations have honor and pride, they have great history.

Besides, I think Turkey has one advantage, terrain. Turkey is mountainous, bigger than Afghanistan. It's very hard to conquer Turkey.
