Is that your excuse? You just lost a World War,your country was partitioned by the Treaty of Sevres and you think you could have "kicked" the British out of Mesotopamia?
What a troll who knows nothing about history and military
Turks did not lose battles during ww1 ( except Sinai and Palestine campaign )
Iraq ( Mosul-Kirkuk ) was belonged to the Ottoman Empire ( Turkiye ) in 1919
-- CHURCHILL dreamed to drink Turkish cofee in Istanbul in a few days
but We Turks kicked British+French in ww1 in Gallipoli
-- Turkish Army entered Caucasia and İran in ww1
-- British General Townshend surrendered with his 13,309 men, including 6 generals and 476 officers, on April 29th 1916. This was the highest number of British troops captured in a long time
The siege of Kut al Amara with the Turks in the Mesopotamian Campaign ( Iraq ) brought the end of General Townshend's career
British is so smart to use Greeks as puppets to take oil reserves in Iraq ( Mosul-Kirkuk ) between 1919-1922
even British took oil reserves in Iraq ( Mosul-Kirkuk ) at the desk with the trick
1926 Ankara Treaty Mosul and Kirkuk provinces were given to Iraq.
Crimea and Donbass were already under Russian control,before the war
after the war Don-Bas was become Russian territory
and Nobody can take Don-Bas from nuclear power Russia
Ukraine was doomed by USA,UK,France,Germany
and Ukraine paid heavy price
So how many men have the Russians lost so far? How much equipment? How much progress have they made?
Stop trying to immitate Russia,because you don't know how a conflict would end. And who would get involved.
Nobody cares about loses and equipment ... Russia has huge population and defense industry
Russia took Don-Bas after Crimiea and Russia is so happy
Ukraine is only loser side in this war .... as like Greece in 1922
