From your link .....

Did Turkey offer its support in the 1991 Gulf War?

Yes, and it has allowed coalition forces enforcing the northern no-fly zone to fly from its territory for nearly a decade. It has also been very supportive in the recent war on terror. Since September 11, it has provided military support, tracked suspect financial networks, and been a major participant in the International Security Assistance Force, the peacekeeping force that operates in Afghanistan. That’s why the most recent break in the relationship is such big news to Turkey experts. “It might sound hyperbolic, but it feels like 10 years of improving relations have just gone down the drain,” Abramowitz said.

... they helped us during Desert Storm or are you calling The “Gulf War” the period other than 90/91 ?
