Seems like maybe it's time for someone to remove Edry and help a more reasonable ruler take charge. Because there have to be some non-neo-Ottoman's in Turkey's gov/military who we could place in charge after removing Erdy.

Erdy really wants to be able to dictate domestic policy to any new NATO members when it comes to the Kurds. Shame the Turkish military isn't the old 'coup if idiot tries shit or fucks up' organization it used to be.

Well, looks like the Kurds/Rojava is getting thrown under the bus to get Erdy to ok Finland and Sweden joining NATO. Something tells me any good will the US/West had left with the YPG and friends is gone.

Turkey/Erdogan are just wanting attention and bargains. Erdogan's objection will either be solved with the carrot, or the stick, and the new members will be in NATO before the summer is over.

Looks like Erdy isn't going to let them in, no matter what deals happen. Of course Finland and Sweden are already getting defensive promises from their neighbors separate from the NATO bureaucracy.

Well, looks like the Nordics and others are giving Sweden and Finland security garuantees separate from NATO, because they are not going to let Erdy's stupidity endanger their neighbors or themselves.

So Edry's being dipshit again. This time it seems like the buried demand is that Sweden and Finland stop supporting 'anti-Turkish groups' in Syria.

Or they want the F-35s orders that were cancelled when we refused to follow through on the sale due to Erdy getting that S-400.

You do remember that Germany is building an off-shore LNG terminal, and Poland was given US civie nuke tech? They may not help immediately, but alternatives to Russian energy are in the process of being put into operation. As well, I think Finland could ask Norway for help, given all their oil...

I used to think NATO had outlived it's usefulness. Now...welcome to the party; how badly do you all want Russia to bleed in Ukraine?
