Erdogan is not a NATO ally. His actions speak louder than words.

[Tpry]

ERDOGAN should choose which side Turkey's best interest and therefore allegiance lies.
It cannot be ally to both opposing parties.

[commissaryarrick]

Playing both sides will lead to problems for turkey one day . Either side wont put up with it forever

[michaelbee]

Yet another example of Erdogan's desire to play on the fence between NATO and Russia. He wants all the benefits of NATO membership (including holding up Finland and Sweden membership) while continuing his bromance with Putin. Eventually this come to a head and that's risky too because of the immense strategic importance of Turkey (given the Black Sea and Bosphorus Straits).

[AkeN]

Taking Turkey in NATO was a really bad idea…

[ianrundle]

Frankly, everyone needs to be concerned with deals involving Russia right now.

[mercifulterros]

NATO also has systems in Turkey. This just seems kind of counter productive, to host both NATO and Russian systems.

[lgnfve]

Erdogan days are very numbered. playing in the middle of the road only does one thing, get you hit.

[dbm]

There is no middle ground in this present day world politics.

[Villain]

I have said it before and I will say it again Turkey should not be a member of Nato.
Turkey needs to be removed from Nato and never allowed back into the alliance.

[ironknee]

After seeing Russia’s treatment of the ZNPP and Chernobyl site in Ukraine, as well as their manipulation tactics with gas earlier on in the war, and now electrical as well, it’s hard to imagine anyone willing to trust and partner with Russia for anything energy-related.

[warsil]

Next time Russia will.say there are Russian speakers and annex that Turkish land as well

[harryseldom]

Turkey is already off the f35 program in NATO for buying that AS400 system, if they want to be booted out from NATO altogether that's a good way of doing it...

[kathleenmann]

Don’t do it, 🇹🇷 Turkey ! Russia will hold it hostage like they have done in Ukraine 🇺🇦 👍

[arkbuilder]

Can’t fathom Turkey allowing a pariah state like Russia to place long range missiles on their territory (NATO). Just insane on the face of it.

[alexhuntercdc]

NATO to Erdogan: Do you lack a SPINE, brother?

[zameisie]

I don't understand why nato is afraid of petunia. President zelensky certainly isn't. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 ♥

[JelMain]

Judge by deeds, not words. The Bosphorus is still sealed to the Russian Navy.

[derdude]

Sad but true Erdogan is still blocking Sweden and Finland joining Nato... there's no Article to kick Turkey plus their geostratic importance makes it tricky... so best thing will be the 29 others agree to defend each other and there would be a good place for NATO Radar station in future e.g Donezk 😁

[Tolo-rxtx]

Erdgodan better be very careful, he's playing a dangerous game. This will never happen
