I have no confidence in this government to come out of this situation with anything but complete humiliation. So they wont even manage to achieve these terms.
But that oddness is costing Turkey the influence of the entire region. There is either a serious corruption going on backstage or Putin has some blackmail material on Erdo. We all know that TAF can conquer the whole Syria till Israeli border no problem if given order.
But it doesn't make sense, why did they send an Army Corps sized unit and a decent chunk of the professional fighting force of TAF to that area if there isn't gonna be any operation?
Because we all know Erdo shits his pants after hearing Putins name.
Agreed, it is fucking embarrassing. Country is ruled by charlatans.
Oh and BTW you all probably heard about the coup talks? What if Erdo is sending all those troops to Syria because of that?
Funny thing is, Russia dealt much more damage to Turkey than USA which is the popular enemy in Turkey while public thinks that Putin and Erdo are friends. Russia sent their own soldier to be meatshields for YPG ffs.:rofl:
I think this is the truth, everything makes sense when you take this into account. Oh and all the turkish tweeps hyping up people about the operation are radio silent. :omghaha:
Jesus, the disrespect. They don't even care anymore. What the hell are the countries leadership thinking? There wont be any operation to Aleppo either. These guys have just destroyed the deterrence of the TAF.
Well said but then i still think that Damocles Sword comparison doesn't hold up here. Any discussion about new coming refugees is shut down immediately with a single "Are you racist?" and public in general are brainwashed with endless government propaganda so they have no idea what the country...
Gotta disagree here. No one in Turkey knows what is going in Syria, he will come out fine. Weird thing here is how much conceding he is against Russians than against Americans. It makes no sense unless Putin has some personal blackmail material on him. And also there is no way TAF gets involved...
I am returning from years of inactivity for this. Is there any sane reasoning to whatever the hell Erdogan is trying to achieve here? Is there anyone here that seriously thinks Turkish Army will head on storm Aleppo to reinstate the Sochi Agreement Borders? Just like they were going to capture...
