Why do you need greenhouses in Mexico where you can pretty much grow food all year around?

Mr. Openminded, Mexico is a country much bigger and wealthier than Turkey and also a much bigger producer of agricultural and indistrial products for them to need our help. I have met many mexicans and believe me that many of them know nothing about Turkey and don’t really care about Turks and Turkey at all.
You use your soft power in places which your nation and history is connected to or where your strategic interests are. Mexico has never been and never will be such a place this is why most here are unhappy with the money spent on bullsh*t like that... Money that come from the hard earned money of the Turkish taxpayers that went to feed some mexicans on the other side of the globe or most probably to fill the pockets and bank accounts of some Turkish officials. That is just a drop in the oceans. People are unhappy that billions every year are lost in corruption and unnecessary spendings like that.

I am all for Turkey investing in humanitatian, economic and historic projects in Bosnia and the rest of The Balkans, the Caucasus, Central Asia, Africa- places where Turks and friends of Turks still live to this day. Places where SOFT POWER really is a power but nah... I must be a narrow minded person while you are not.

Sorry, but almost everythng you wrote in your first paragraph doesnt mean shit. Mexico, very large part of it is a poor country, highly underdevolept, with almost no acces to the riches of Mexico City. I mean for God sake 1000s of Mexican dont put them self at the mercy of kartel koyoties to lead em acroos US border to do shit jobs there if they had plenty to eat in Mexico.

As I see it Turkey has big plans for the Americas, Mexico is one of the cuntries of high interest for Turkey espansion there, which is no suprise considering its gheographical position, its population size and conomic potential. Firts sign of turkish intent and ambition to make headway in Mexico was of course first ever visit of Mexican president to Turkey few years back. So there's interest from both sides. TIKA as goverment agency almost certanly has his role to play in this diplomatic mission re Mexico. Mexico also donated few milions to Turkey for their syrian refugee program..

Last but not least such activities are not bound just by historial connection and thnigs like that, but are also used to pave the way as a means of good faith to new international partnerships in countries and region where in this instance Turkey is the new kid in the block. And Mexico with its fore mentionet potential is prime candidate.

Turkey is making slow but steady inroads to Americas. Bolivias just asked for permition to open its first ambasy in Ankara. And I must say its a briliant strategy, considering USA unpopular standing in the region in recent times.

As for Bosnia, TIKA is indeeed doing good work here. I have no qualms for them going to Mexico and other countries and doing project there instead focusing only on Bosnia cause we have deeper historical, cultural, religous etcc bonds. Like, those fuking Turks, insted helping us more, they spend they money in fucking Mexico and stupid shit like tht. Cause I Undertand the bigger picture.

If you indeed want for Turkey to become global player with influences accros the globe, this is one of the ways how its achived. Its really an old "trick", used by every big power for past century and a half.

Indeed, I am openminded, but more importantly, I studied this sorta shit of international relations. ANd kinda know how this shit works.

Government Budget is not a charity budget! This is so stupid. Government is executive power and it's budget is to be used to fund ministeries to execute the laws o_O You cannot use taxpayers money to throw funds into another nations without getting taxpayers' permission. You just cannot.

There are real charity organisations in Turkey. So if one charity organisation asks money to open a greenhouse in Mexico, i would support it. With that way;

> Those Turkish citizens who want to help this charity can freely donate that organisation with their own money
> Other Turkish citizens that doesn't want to help this charity can choice not to use their own money.

And i am not even talking about money laundering under these kind of fake events, they use X amount of money to invest, but they write on paper 3X amount, 2X amount of taxpayers' money goes to some people's pockets!

I explained the stupidity in this incident like i am talking to a wall, pushing this forward will be accepted as an insult on human intelligence.

Some of you still dont get it. TIKA is turkish equivalent of american USAID or UKs British Council. TIKA acts as extended hand of turkish gov diplomacy abroad...

Go back to my previus post, read it carefully, then take a peak at this one and try to connect the dots. If you cant, then... well...

And I have a feeling this is just the begining when it comes to Mexico and Americas in general.
I any case, where ever zou see TIKA doing projects, going into new countries, be sure thats its humanitarian work there is part of broader diplomatic strategy.

I apoligize if I come sometimes a bit snobish. By Allah its not my intent. Im an asshole only towards those who deseve it: the born assholes. I think its fair. :)

People do not realise we need a strong Mexico it is in our interest. The Americans need a neighbour that can at least threatened their interests. Turkey and Mexico can become great partners.

Such a shame that Mexico has the potential but centuries of corruption, revolutions and internal problems have all but sapped the country's potential. They also lost so much territory to the USA.

USA was able to become a superpower because it barely has any competitors in its continenet while in Turkey with the Ottomans we had to compete with Western Europe, Russia and Iran which costed us land and got us into many wars which weakened us for the long term.

Its a miracle how we are standing today. Hence why people need to be so thankful that Ataturk salvaged a country from a dead empire.

Loosing California and Texas was in many ways determental for Mexicos Future; all those gold mines and oil resreve lost to the neighbur.

Ottomn Empire or Khalifate was a great Empire. Im proud for my ancestores who served it in that time. And Im not of turkish origine. Im a Turk only inside of heads of neigburing nations, and Im fine with it. They think its an insult to us, facking primitives. Similiar to stupidty of believing that bacon is somekind of muslim kryptonite.

Utilizing soft power on geographical areas of interest and influence is one thing, wasting resources on far away lands such as Columbia and Mexico just because some genius said we were gonna help anyone in need whether its enough or not is another. The former is called statehood while the latter anything but soft power..
