IS THERE A TENSION BETWEEN EGYPT AND TURKEY?

Turkey had no major relations in the Middle East prior to Erdogan, Turkey did have a decent relationship with Israel but that was no longer in the political sense due to flotilla incident. You can't compare this leader to a leader from a stable Europe. The Middle East saw many drastic developments in the past two years that greatly complicate politics. There isn't a good choice here, there is only a better choice than the other one. Or there is neutrality which is possible for some nations but not for neighboring nations in major conflicts.



Sisi had a hostile attitude to anyone he thought was Ikhwaan. If you think that came out of nowhere then you are wrong. His policy was coordinated with Saudi Arabia, UAE, Israel prior to him overthrowing the elected president. Erdogan was just being smart and refused to display weakness because either way Egypt and its new allies were going to demonize Turkey.

Hamas initially accepted the events and tried to display brotherlyhood with Egypt in an attempt to have things function normally between the Palestinians and the Egyptians but it didn't work because the Egyptian intelligence was already ordered to refuse to even cooperate on the border let alone in any other sense. So Hamas was wasting its time thinking that Egypt wouldn't hostile but that wasn't the case. Now they realize everything.

Diplomatically yes the relations has soured, but economically speaking Turkey's trade with Israel has tripled/quadrupled since the flotilla incident.

In either case all countries should get along. We need to promote good ties between Turkey and the neighbors. Turkish secularism is the best model for all of us.
There where the danger lies. Secularism on top of brutal dictatorship that is prevalent in Muslim is a deadly combination. Nobody , talking about North Africa, want an Ergodan like system of governing in their respective country.

A coup is a coup any way you paint it

Turkey did the right thing

Wasting your time with Egypt and that son of kaffir whore Sisi is pointless


Erdogan did his utmost to transform turkey and to eensure that the military could not interfere in politics it would be foolish to not speak out against a brutal secularist regime which overthrew a democratically elected government with an islamic slant much like the AKP itself

Erdogan when he came to Egypt gave a speech in favor of secularism. Why would they support a group like the Muslim Brotherhood?

Erdogan himself knows very well how dangerous Islamism is, thats why he said to MB they should adopt secular constitution, he knows that any political party needs to respect secular principles to rule stable in a multireligious country, he just doesnt tell it openly not to anger conservatives, thats why MB got mad at him afterwards.

Btw: Erdogan has even managed to anger MB, pissing people of is probably his biggest talent. :lol:

Blasphemy! Are you implying that Erdogans heroic speech at WEF was just a show? :angry:
May Mossad get your azz and do Zionist things with you. :frown:
