Erdogan: Turkey was left alone in NATO at a time when support was so needed

51

The Turkish President commented on the situation inside the NATO military bloc. According to Erdogan, the North Atlantic Alliance is often criticized today for its lack of unity.

The Turkish President, commenting on the summit of the military bloc, which took place a few days ago in Brussels:



The alliance will have even more problems without Turkey. NATO without Turkey will not only be extremely difficult to maintain its potential, but also to continue to exist.

According to the Turkish head of state, Ankara recognizes the importance of NATO. Recep Tayyip Erdogan:

And this despite the fact that NATO left Turkey alone at the moment when we needed support so badly.

Which moment Erdogan was talking about, he himself did not specify. At the same time, it was suggested that the Turkish president had in mind an attempted coup d'etat when his fate hung, as they say, in the balance and when help came from where he did not expect, from Russia.

Erdogan also noted that the issue of combating terrorism was discussed during the summit. According to the Turkish President, terrorists cannot be divided into good and bad. Erdogan called on NATO to recognize the PKK as a terrorist organization. At the same time, it should be noted that Erdogan himself is engaged in the division of terrorists into "good" and "bad", providing support, for example, to the terrorist forces in Syrian Idlib.
Erdogan added that NATO has many problems:

In a number of armed crises, from Palestine to Iraq and Libya, the alliance has failed to show its unity and will.

It is worth recalling that earlier French President Emmanuel Macron spoke about "brain death". However, then Macron made a statement, noting that "the significance of NATO is high."

        My classmate's daughter married a Turk. And I must say already three kids! Turks They are very proud of the achievements of their country, they adore Ukrainian and Russian women, every man, according to a new tradition, should visit at least once in his life ... Red Square in Moscow ... 400 not just caught the Ottomans, sacrificing the F-35 program, the S400-he protects Istanbul from a repeated putsch using helicopters and aircraft from the same Injerlik pro-NATO base from which the F-16 that shot down our dryer also took off. I want to remind you that the Turks returned the body of our pilot with military honors. We showed this process to the whole world. So Erdogan, of course, is on his mind, but he remembers the favor, and marks the leader of the Muslim world. He will also make an atomic bomb - mark my word. And such a neighbor is much better for Russia than a crazy Ukraine. And Erdogan twists the Israeli map in his own interests, completely ignoring and not looking back at the notorious myth of the alleged genius of local Jews.

            but, if you remember, there is such a name Roksalan, uh-huh, the beloved "legal Wife!" of the magnificent sultan, is revered by the Turks as we have in Russia - Catherine the Great, and still admires Turkish men and women, and to marry a woman of Russian or Ukrainian nationality, this is considered good luck bringing happiness and benefit to the house of any Turk.

        Firstly, Erdogan did not mean a coup, the author of the article thought it up in one place. It was about Casus Belli, when our plane was shot down and Russia was supposed to start a war with Turkey. At that moment, the United States and NATO refused Turkey, leaving it alone with Russia. Actually, what did they want for a lousy Turkey to start a nuclear war? Russia, in addition to destroying a bus with elite pilots, as well as the Kurds, got our MANPADS and destroyed at least one helicopter (there is a video), they say two, of course it was preparing a number of other measures, but intervened in the coup and now the reality is different. The West sacrificed Turkey in the Great Gas War, and when they did not achieve this, they staged a coup to the person who also prevented the start of the war, i.e. Erdogan, of course, remembering the Turkish Stream. Of course, Russia would have cut Turkey, but at what cost (in economic terms), they would not have climbed into the territory, they would have destroyed it with long-range weapons and possibly with TNW. The West was counting on this. Our General Staff and Supreme Commander does not like to engage in occupation (and rightly so). The same United States broke off on this. Having smacked Iraq and Afghanistan, over the decades of occupation, they lost more equipment and people than in the hot phase, also experiencing economic stress. Of course, what would have been achieved is the impossibility of Russia holding the Syrian shelf without the use of nuclear weapons (which must be decided). The Syrian Express would be blocked by Suez, Gibraltar and the Bosphorus. Also, aviation would not be allowed to work. So we were not allowed to support the Serbs in the destruction of Yugoslavia. That the Turkish army would be destroyed and Turkey itself in ruins was worth the Jabal nafti field (reserves equal to Kuwait, almost in Europe, bypassing Suez) and the supply of gas from the shelf of Middle-earth and Arabia to the EU, completely excluding our supplies. NATO wanted to use the Turk for its intended purpose, that is, as meat. Erdogan expressed this subtly, but succinctly. Why should Turkey leave NATO? But this is no longer meat. This is an independent country and let the organization shit and sway inside NATO.

    Not only unity and will, but also the ability to fight real international terrorists, and not by choice to solve their mercantile tasks. About support. When they ask for support to cover up their sins and shoals, and even against a strong enemy, the Americans in particular turn on the principle of "their own shirt is closer to the body", and in the wake of them, and other members.
