Sweden and Finland joining NATO. It is clear that the plan will go down the drain if Turkey vetoes this move.

The author is naive. I don't care what NATO's Charter says, the US deep-state will make Sweden and Finland are in, whether its de jure or de facto.

I knew a chick named Yeni Safak in school.

She was into Zoology. Got pregnant by a Lemur.

Is this her blog? I always wanted ask her about that.

Alternatively, because there is no mechanism to boot anyone from NATO, you could see the formation of a separate Alliance to includes Sweden, Finland, and the rest of the West, until other current NATO members decide that NATO is superfluous.

And Turkey is left as the last member of NATO, all by itself.

Expansion of NATO is destabilizing to international relations.

These talks are an invasion to the start of WW III

Yeni Şafak (”New Dawn”) is a conservative, Islamist Turkish daily newspaper. The newspaper is known for its hardline support of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and the AK Party and has a very close relationship with the Turkish government.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeni_%C5%9Eafak

So probably reflects what Turkish government is thinking about.

Yeni Safak is a Turk, so this one-sided article should be read with that in mind. He is pro-Turkey down to his toes.
He is of course very anti-Kurd. He wants Turkey to shake down NATO and the West (the author gives himself away with his “Anglo-American” jab).

Correction: “It” instead of “he.”

(I used to work with a guy named Yeni, so I jumped to conclusions that this was a person instead of an islamist newspaper.)

At this point, the threat of Sweden and Finland joining NATO and the ongoing process is just as effective as the actual membership, sans the missile build-up. The NATO nations should drag this on for a while.

“And Turkey is left as the last member of NATO, all by itself.”

...and with that, they’re forced to look East. Are we sure we want to give Turkey to Russia in exchange for the symbolic ascension of Sweden/Finland to NATO (considering that their already defacto members)?

I doubt it.

Do you suppose his “Anglo-American” hatred includes other NATO members such as the French, the Polish, the Italians, the Romanians, the Dutch, the Germans, the Norwegians, etc?

The Soviet Union doesn’t exist anymore, no matter how much you miss it.
