I'm not a fan of Erdoğan but what he said has been misinterpreted. He's saying men and women are not the same. That doesn't mean women are below men. There are things which men can physically do and things which women can physically do. Women should not be doing something which they are not...
Yeah, its also multi-ethnic. I met a lot of people from different countries. I hardly met any Brits there :lol:
Yeah, Im studying. What were you doing there? :)
This is most likely being done in response to the NATO expansion in the former Eastern bloc. Russia wants to expand its influence in the regions which were formerly under its rule. I don't think Ponta would be pro-Putin. Romania is a member of NATO and the EU.

Israelis have violated international law several times and have gotten away with it so what gives them the right to point fingers at him. Total hypocrisy my friend.
If you go to Gaza I'm sure you will also start making political statements because of the horror you will see there whether you're there as a humanitarian or a reporter.
These people are part of the Türkiye Gençlik Birliği (TGB) who are extreme leftists. They are known to be anti-government and anti-american. Anti-Americanism grew fast in Turkey after the hood event in 2003. Turkey is not the only country with extreme leftist groups. In England you have English...
I presented myself in the introduction thread. Sorry I didn't know I was suppose to do it in the Cay Bachesi thread as well. I didn't mean to give you bad vibes. I was just very upset with this news (i know its not recent) and wanted to express myself. I wasn't aware this was already discussed...
