    There was news today that Turkey might veto Finland and Sweden’s entry into the Nato.

      Timed precisely after the leaders in Finland made their stance clear. Erdogan wants something special for his troubles.

        Not really. The Kurds were Erdoğan’s closest alliest from 2002 to 2014 against the secular Turkish democracy. Since then they have been going through a really messy divorce.

          I mean… he went into another country just to attack the Kurds, pissing off the US in the process. Seems to have gone a bit beyond messy divorce.
