Germany was sure quiet when US blew up Northstream- Perhaps, Zelensky was just recycling strategy from the Biden play book Washington Post But behind closed doors, Ukraine’s leader has proposed going in a more audacious direction — occupying Russian villages to gain leverage over Moscow, bombing a pipeline that transfers Russian oil to Hungary, a […]

Here’s a report suggesting Erdogan’s win in the first run shafaq Shafaq News/ Opinion polls conducted by the “Areda” and “Asal” studies centers on Saturday suggest that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is expected to win the presidential elections in the first round, which is set to begin on Sunday morning. The “Areda” Center for […]
Did this come out of the Hilary Clinton play book? Seems to have. This appears to be desperate propaganda tactic on the part of the opposition. Suggestive, at least to me, that the numbers don’t look good for the coalition of frenemies. The claims are absurd, in my opinion. Turkey and Russia have had diplomatic/realpolitik […]

Turkish Housewives as the Wild Card
I love this piece. Housewives. That most put down group of women. Nearly always presented as persona non grata in society. Never doing anything meaningful or productive. And here they are, the wild card, in a vitally important election Out of the 64 million registered citizens eligible to vote in Turkey’s upcoming elections on 14 May, approximately 11 […]
The original headline at the time I bookmarked this included the words “more time was needed”.. Perhaps that didn’t sound as reassuring for the western audience? There has been no rout at the front as claimed in the article. So, the long awaited counteroffensive, according to Zelensky, will begin when Ukraine forces receive their full […]
The word clutches means to grasp and hold, tightly, strongly and quickly. The Opposition is very clearly stating this is their plan. They will move Turkey away from some independence and back into near servitude to US/NATO interests. Western media is still suggesting the opposition has the lead in polls, but, the weasel wording has […]
That’s from the Globe and Mail article featured in the previous report- Archive.ph Which is why the US is leading the way in supporting the opposition. Deconstruction- THE ACT OF BREAKING SOMETHING DOWN INTO SEPARATE PARTS, allegedly to understand it better, but not really! It’s just an obfuscation of the plan, it’s a nice way […]
As mentioned in yesterday’s post- Turkey has done good work between Ukraine and Russia thus far, without Brazil’s Lula. AA The deputy defense ministers of Türkiye, Russia, and Ukraine are expected to hold a meeting in Istanbul on Friday to discuss the extension of the Black Sea grain deal, set to expire later this month, […]
Personally, I don’t think so. Brazil isn’t anywhere near Ukraine or Russia, geographically speaking. I’d rather see Turkey continue on in this role. They have, as they say, “some skin in the game”. Of course the US has no interest in an Erdogan led Turkey continuing in the capacity. Than China had a peace plan? […]
By all reports he was feisty and animated- Combative as well. So no heart attack and certainly alive! Bnnbloomberg (Bloomberg) — Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan made his first public appearance since a health scare that sidelined him just weeks ahead of the nation’s election. Erdogan on Saturday visited Teknofest in Istanbul, an aerospace and […]
