OFF-TOPIC

In general, i find it quite funny and unfortunate that Turkey, one the large NATO members cannot guarantee security in the country. In Europe, after the France and the U.K, the largest NATO partner is Turkey.


How come violence in that Country is relentless, with some parts in the South looking like Syria.
omitted Germany.

Compared to Turkey, the German military is quite weak. The Germans are now pacifist , who are afraid of war and their own history.


A strong defence industry doesn't equate a strong military.

it may be but economically it can compare to other Europeans states.the struggle by kurds for self autonomy has being going on for a very long time,also other neighbouring states have supported in arming kurds in turkey and dont forget the collapse of several states in that region and wars,have helped kurds get access to arms

Turkey has the 6th largest economy in Europe and the 3rd largest military. That country simply has no excuses for the level of insecurity.

For how long would they be fighting the Kurds at least ,that's a political issue, a political settlement could be reached.

With Turkey , it's either a Coup, suicide bombing, fighting with the Kurds.. ........ Just a general air of insecurity.

Turkey is way more insecure than many Sub-Saharan states. If they had colonialists occupying and exploiting them for 200 years like the rest of Africa, they'd had been in a far worse state.

its actually the 7th and having such a big force does take a big share of its budget.other countries may not be rich as turkey but the have the EU to cushion their economy turmoil e.g Greece. both Turkish and Kurds have too much pride about each other culture,language e.t.c this year turkey economy is projected to grow by at least 1.5% their economy is in real problems.erdogan is even threaten EU if turkey talks to be member don't proceed,he is going to allow syrian refugees to flood inside EU states

Someone would say the same about Nigeria.

Turkey shares boarders with unstable countries.

The Turkish military is holding the line in the fight against the Kurds until both parties decide to head to the negotiating table.

It is completely disingenuous to compare Nigeria with Turkey. When the British left Nigeria in 1960 only 5% of the Nigerian population at the time was educated.

Unlike Turkey, we did not have Europe on our borders to trade with.

Just like Turkey, we have completely collapsed states on our borders. Chad was in a civil war for more than 30 years right on our northern borders, we had Niger , we had to deal with refugees, hundreds of thousands of them from Liberia and Sierra-Leone, just like Turkey had to deal with them from Syria. Separatists in the south also.

We have the complete mess that is Libya, we had to deal with arms from Angola and Equitorial Guinea.

We don't have NATO to depend on, we don't even have 1/4 the size of the Turkish military. Neither did we have hundreds of years of self governance like Turks/Ottomans

By all accounts we've done very well.

Infact, we have the opportunities or the military might of Turkey, the entire West-Africa, not just Nigeria would be very very peaceful and prosperous. We cannot say the same for Turkey.


The Turkish military and Intelligence services are performing horribly.

We face similar problems as Turkey, with far less support than Turkey, but we are doing way better than them and managing our situation far better than they are.

What Romance? The so-called Romance only starts after the failed coup. Had it been there was no coup, do you think Ankara will be this friendly with Moscow?

On another note, Cyber G's, what do you think might happen if there was STILL this 'tense' atmosphere just like after the downing of the Russian Bomber? I know Moscow would had view it as state assasination had it been they(turkey and russia) are not on talking term.

the same once pacifist Japan is reawakening. the Germans are not afraid of war only that they are not interested in another.


apart from Russia and US no country have a great def industry like dat of Germany.
don't forget Germany have the largest no of troops n hardware in Europe.
