Did Turkey ‘Lose’ Iran?

Country things come first. So I ain't give a sh¡t on neighbourhood duties. Unlike Iran, we have enough allies that we don't have to care about Iran, Syria nor a sh¡t else
Looking after your neighbor has a big part in our culture, this must also be evident in our politics.

We do have to care about Iran, Syria etc. because of the simple fact that we are neighbors. We need these countries strong and prosperous, in turn Turkey, Iran, Syria and all these countries benefit from each other and the region itself becomes prosperous. If a region is prosperous there will be less chance for conflict. As many have probably noticed, conflict always arises in the more poor countries. Even if you look at crime rates of almost any country, criminality is usually higher in the poorer demographic's or area's of a city/region.

In crime rate, life standarts, trade, economy, education...etc. Turkey's level is much more higher than these countries you and I've mentioned. That's why we don't have to. Be careful I didn't said "shouldn't" :). To make higher our foreign policy we should work with better nations than ourselves. If we stay with just doin the neighbourhood duties crap, we'd be only famous on Arabic, Persian and Islam culture which still we're. If we do it with the way said, meanwhile challenging ourselves. We'll get better. Nothing is more important than Turkish wills in ME, just as nothing is more important than Iranian wills in ME to Iranians. Of course I'm not a war monger or a conflict maniac. But you can't retriet from your National Interests just for preventing a conflict. I'm pretty sure that if a potentional conflict crosses with our National Interests; It's worth to take it.
