Erdogan reaching out to give the Russian Bear a friendly pat. Good way to lose an arm IMHO.

It was reported yesterday that the Iranians asked for a meeting with Putin to discuss how to help the Turks best....

Good job, Obama with creating this new Triple Alliance and getting the US locked out of the Middle East.

“The visit comes as Turkey’s ties with the West have cooled”

Obama loves Erdogan. I’d say heated up with passion is more like it.

BTW, does anyone see a parallel with 1980?

Reagan won in part because Carter lost Iran ... and Carter lost Iran because of stupid meddling there.

Now we have Obama losing Turkey because of stupid meddling....

Putin offers Turkey's Erdogan closer ties

OK, Mo, I'll let Erdogan know we can trust Obama and Clinton.

I would love to know what happened to take the Turkish downing of two Russian Helicopters last year, and subsequent murder of their pilots, to this.

In only a year.

Turkey must have had some great evidence. And if they did, that evidence would implicate either the US or Saudi Arabia via Israel (Yes.. don’t look at me like that. Israel and SA have had chats these past 18 months)

Turkey is one of the greatest international mysteries in my lifetime.
