The Rising Tension Between Russia And Turkey by rubyradiance(f): 8:28am On Nov 27, 2015
Tension is increasing rapidly between Russia and Turkey over a Russian war plane that was brought down in turkey's territory days back.

Turkey claimed to have warned the plane to be out of their territory and didn't receive a feedback hence the grounding but one of the pilot has refuted the claim even though Turkey's has released a video to that effect


President Erdog'an of Turkey speaking to CNN,with an un-remorseful attitude claimed it wasn't a premeditated act and that they didn't know it was a Russian plane while Russia stated yesterday that it wasn't possible Turkey's airforce didn't recognise it was a Russian plane.

Russia on the other hand is claiming the plane was going after an ISIS target in Syria and was just in turkey's territory for 30 seconds and it's Interior Minister has stated that Economic sanction will be taken against Turkey

The questions that comes to mind instantly are;; (1).are the world powerful trying to use Turkey to step on Putin's russia's toes??(2).how can you bring down a plane in just 30 seconds in your territory (3).With Putin not answering Mr Erdog'an's call and ignoring all forms of Turkey reaching out to Russia on the issue what is actually on his mind?? (4).with what we know of Mr Putin will he take this likely? HmmM I honestly fear the worst in this diplomatic tussle in the making
