Keep deceiving urself, u think American came 2 distablize Afghanistan lik Russia is doin in Ukraine,
De just came 2 put something right in Afghanistan, while de Russia came 2 declare whole War 4 Ukraine
What did they come to set right? What did they set right when they left?

They went to Afganistan to root out Taliban, as they claimed, and ask yourself now, who's ruling Afghanistan? Taliban

If you fought someone less powerful than you, for over 20 years, and you were defeated... grin

Economy and military might, who be Turkey where world powers are talking..

The reason why they are relevant is the assistance they give when US and other allies wishes to protect their investment in Middle East .

It was initially a big mistake admitting an Islamic country in NATO. Turkey should be banished from nato because they can compromise the security structure of the organization.
UNDER ATATURK TURKEY WAS DECIDEDLY SECULAR. UNDER ERDOGAN IT IS NO LONGER SO. AS ERDOGAN BECOMES MORE AND MORE AUTOCRATIC IN POWER, HE HAS CONVENIENTLY USED RELIGION TO BOLSTER HIS POWER. HE IS NOT THE FIRST TO DO THIS AS WE CAN SEE THE SAME PLAYBOOK IN NIGERIA, RUSSIA, INDIA, HUNGARY AND EVEN IN THE UNITED STATES.

Go ahead and push Turkey towards Russia mumu man! U don't threaten a strategic partner, even if they are wrong u seat them down and reason with them not by force or blackmail. Everyone has a right to what's beneficial to them, Turkey already gave reasons and what they need to do. Look into it and see if it is possible and genuine enough
Maybe Turkey should pick a struggle don't you think? grin

Turkey bought the S400 from Russia...

Turkey wants to remain in the F-35 program....

That is not commendable.

Who is Erdogan's Turkey actually working for ?

Where does their allegiance truly lie...... To NATO or to The East ?

There are Security risks For the West with Turkey using the Russian S400 .

In fact more security risk for her remaining in NATO

This is not blackmail, this is international politics of using what you have to get what you want. Y’all practice politics of wickedness in Africa so you have no idea what leverages are or how to use them.

Nigeria has the leverage of being as diversified as the US and the most populous black nation on earth as well as most populous in Africa, yet cannot leverage on our Niger delta coastlines for exports.

We cannot even export our manpower as a people outside Africa. We barely have anything being exported from Nigeria. India has the same problem as Nigeria? But see how far they’ve gone.

Lol. You meant like Turkey can only deal with either Russia or USA, NATO or East? Turkey is an independent nation, she can deal with whoever she wants and buy from any nation she wants.

There are Security risks For the West with Turkey using the Russian S400 .

How? Tell us in few words. S400 is for self defence, how does it pose security risks to the West? Explain!

Actually the BBC World Service is funded DIRECTLY by the Foreign Office so maybe you have some secret information you wish to share

Of course they do but the propaganda is what I am more concerned about.

From 2014 to present. I guess they are tired of Putin's bullshit and meddling.

Gladly BBC is regulated via OFCOM.

Germany vehemently refused to agree to Turkey's admittance into the EU and heaven did not fall.

Lol..... cheesy cheesy

If they feel insecure in NATO then let them do the needful.

Exit is free of charge.

Turkey can go if they choose to, nobody would veto their decision.

But guess what....

Turkey needs NATO more than NATO needs her.

Turkey has fought something like 12 wars against USSR / Russia and has lost 11.

Now answer this question....

Since they joined NATO, how many War have they fought with Russia ?

Why did the President order withdrawal? Why did the policy change


The simple truth is that if the Taliban were defeated they would not have left. Was it an orderly departure?
If the Taliban were defeated how come the Taliban could sweep out the US puppet regime in 2 weeks and take over the whole country

Even a 10 year old child knows what defeat looks like and there is no way to spin that silly story

The US and NATO were defeated in Afghanistan, as predicted

We're on the same page...perhaps only on different paragraphs of the page!

While you're suggesting Erdogan (not Turkey per se) may pull out of NATO, I am of the opinion NATO suspends Turkey...

That way, e go clear Erdogan that Turkey needs NATO more than NATO needs her.

Here is the truth about the BBC

Anything the BBC is projecting to audiences outside the UK is from the BBC World Service.
This is not funded by TV licence but by the Foreign Ministry of Britain so essentially the BBC World service serves the government to project it in a good light to the World as well as being a propaganda tool of British Foreign Policy and we can see this better in Nigeria than any other place where the BBC is running FOUR DIFFERENT LANGUAGE Services?
Is that how much they love Nigeria or is it a means to win and shape hearts and minds?

Turkey failed to know that once the two countries join NATO, it will be very easy to extradict the terrorists. They just lack sense. How many NATO countries have terrorists? That's what Turkey just don't understand and they're seen as a Putin's tool to disorganise NATO.
