“Turkey going to team up with Russia this time?”
It may as well. It has closer ties to Russia than to Europe or the US. We have two AF bases still there, but only as part of the Southern NATO element. The largest, Incirlik, is pretty much hamstrung by the Turkish authorities. We also have a small Army/NATO radar site. That’s it. I think we may be pulling out of Turkey within the next ten years.
It has always been the “problem child” of NATO, and it outlived its usefulness in the 1970s.
We also have a small Army/NATO radar site.
