Turkey never controlled Moldova. Turkey has existed onoy since 1919.
The Ottoman empire controlled romanian lands.
I should have said, “give it back to the Turks”.
You are correct. Most people here think history began in 1945, there’s a few who think it began in 1919.
Look how many people think Galicia is Ukrainian and not Polish (or Austrian).
Anyway - the point is, the US is clueless about the Balkans, the Carpathians, and further East, and we should stay the hell away from peoples who KNOW history began with the baptism of Vladimir the Great.
