Yes, maybe this is what was needed, sadly, to end the Ukraine war. We cannot ignore ally Turkey and cannot afford to aid both.

Thoughts?

It slipped my mind that Turkey is a NATO member, you may be onto something here.

Russia is going to provide aid to Turkey, which it did many times when it happened

Turkey is not a USA ally.

Turkey President Recep Erdogan is a Muslim dictator who fully supports the Islamic dictatorship in Iran.

When Turkey joined NATO in 1952, Turkey was a secular state that energetically resisted Communism in all its forms.

A very astute observation.

I may have missed it. But I don’t recall seeing any Turkish aid going to people suffering from hurricane damage in Florida, recent round of bad weather in the South or Superstorm Sandy. Am I wrong?

Turkey is now an Islamic dictatorship. The thing it needs most is regime change regardless of any Earthquake.

“Will Aid to Ukraine Be Diverted to Ally Turkey? [Vanity]”

The cash portion of that aid only made it to Ukraine long enough to be cleaned and sent back to Putin, his cabal and the Deep State, with Joe getting his customary 10%.

Don’t for a minute think Turkey is an ally just because it belongs to NATO.

No, Biden regime will use aid to bully Turkey to expand NATO.

Erdogan has turned down various attempts for aid. He was visited some time ago by the various Gulf States but apparetnly refused their assistance.

He tried to work with Russia but it would have been an amalgamation of losers.

The problems in Turkey are Erdogan. So long as he is around, there is no solution

Brilliant, this did not even cross my mind somehow...

Makes perfect sense, it’s a chance to abandon the folly in Ukraine and save face at the same time...
