Every human being needs friends. Because when people are alone, they become helpless in the face of big problems. Politicians also always need friends. Lately, Putin’s allies are constantly losing power. In the process, Putin is embarrassing himself all over the world and he is backed into a corner.

The recent news from Turkey has been very upsetting for Putin. Putin has become one of the most important topics of politics in Turkey. The elections in Turkey can also affect the war between Russia and Ukraine. The whole world is waiting for the results of these elections. So what is the latest situation in the elections in Turkey? Why is Putin on Turkey’s agenda? As Anka Daily News, we contacted veteran journalists in Turkey and conducted a comprehensive research on this issue. Let’s start if you are ready!

Let us first recall the relations between Russia and Turkey. Turkey is located south of Russia. For Russia to use the Black Sea, it needs to use the straits, which Turkey controls. Russia imports large quantities of agricultural products from Turkey. Turkey buys natural gas from Russia.

Turkey has strong ties to NATO. However, due to geographical circumstances, it also maintains balanced relations with Russia. Turkey is considered a continuation of the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Empire, too, always tried to maintain a “policy of balance” between Russia and the Western countries.

Turkey is a country connected to the Balkans, the Caucasus, the Middle East, the Mediterranean, the Black Sea and Europe. Due to its geographical location, Turkey aims to get along well with all countries in foreign policy.

Russia has been trying to improve its relations with Turkey in recent years. This is especially aimed at improving the friendship between Erdogan and Putin. Due to the major economic crisis in Turkey, cooperation with Russia has increased. Putin aims to bring Erdogan under his influence over time. Parties in Turkey that advocate anti-Western policies are currently supporting Erdogan. These parties want Turkey to reduce its ties with Western countries. This is exciting for Putin. Putin wants Turkey to become an ally of Russia. That is why he is allegedly supporting Erdogan.

If they call that liberating, I would hate to see an all out war. Aint nothing left in that whole dam place. Let Russia have it.

Waiting for some war whores to start cheering when they sneak in a nuclear warhead on one of those cruise missiles the UK is providing.
Will wait to see what they say after Russia responds in kind and ends the lives of millions of people in THE Ukraine.

#1. Hindustan Times.
#2. The Russian MOD always gets in the last word with a "uh-uh" victory.
  A. This is Russian propoganda 101.
  B. It lets everyone who is not simping for Russia what the truth is.
#3. Prigozhin is spitting mad at what is happening around Bakhmut.
#4. Prigozhin knows the score.

"Prigozhin calls for a rebellion."

"He called the "special military operation" a stupid war, soldiers - the only innocent ones, and the events on the frontlines - a tragedy."

"Will he be the one to start a revolution?"
