In the old days, the U.S. might have “removed” Erdogan. Today we don’t do such things, but we should remove them from NATO.
why should “we” remove them from NATO?
Because their leader doesn’t respect obama?
Erdogan has the same lack of respect for obama as does probably half of America and the world
Turkey like all nations has no permanent friends or enemies, just permanent interests - and obama’s “policies” don’t meet those interests.
and traditional diplomacy to smooth the gap?
Out the window with 6 years of incompetence at the US State Department.
