Turkey is the Wildcard of NATO 

CORRECTION: Henry A caught a mistake I said "pakistan" is into the CSTO , I misspoke Tajikistan is in the CSTO not Pakistan! Hey Spare Parts Army! I think Turkey is one of those "can't live with em' can't live without em' " relationships. They play an important part in the NATO alliance even if their choices are a little debatable sometimes. unironically hooah photos: instagram.com/cappyarmy/ uniornically hooah tweets twitter.com/Cappyarmy

Can you really blame the Turks for hating America? The US has attempted at least 81 coups from 1946-2000. That’s 1.5 coups a year. Whenever America attempts a regime change of another country it’s called “freedom and democracy”, but when other countries attempt the same it’s “warmongering and tyranny”. Double standards and hypocrisy at its finest.

I think that NATO and the USA should criticize themselves on some issues. When Turkey shot down the Russian SU-24 plane in 2015, NATO and the USA left Turkey alone against Russia. While terrorist organizations were carrying out bombing actions in Turkey's cities that killed many civilians, Turkey again left alone. After these events, we cannot criticize the Turks because their trust in NATO and the USA has decreased because NATO and the USA caused this.

6:49 you said "Turkey doubles oil imports from russia" but you did not said greeks literally smuggling russian oils in aegean sea. Nobody says anything about that.

"To be an enemy of the US is dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal” Henry Kissinger “I helped plan coups in other countries.” John Bolton

So Turkey tried to stop us from doing Iraq? And now Turkey wants to talk to Russia about resolving Ukraine? Sounds like they're a sensible partner, and we should be listening to them more, not treating them like a pariah.

In the case for S-400, Turkey has been asking for their own Patriots for basically years and best they got was Patriots that were controlled by Germans, which were taken back to Germany in 2015 (considering the coup attempt the next year), this made Turkish government be wary of their air defence which their NATO allies seem to ignore. So Turkey went for alternatives which only S-400 was accepted. Erdoğan tried use this purchase to get Patriots, but it was denied again, so he went with the purchase.

Whole video's theme is " Why don't Turkiye give everything U.S. wants and surrender to U.S. completely".

The Turkish are a strong people with strong wills, they are not servants to an agenda. Also you seem to have left out a key detail about the S400, for years Türkiye asked USA for Patriot missile systems but were constantly refused by their “allies” so they had no other choice. Not too mention NATO counterparts have constantly and repeatedly dismissed Turkish national security concerns in Syria and supported anti Turkish group. Don’t punch them in the face and then condemn them for raising their guard.

When he says wildcard he means the only independent nation in NATO.

Does Cappy pronounce things wrong and differently every time just to mess with us or is it unintentional?

İn Afganistan , all nato millitary groups use Turkish flag when they send their troops out from military bases.

For those questioning Turkey’s alliance, I’d like to remind them that Turkey was the fourth-largest military contributor to the Korean War upon the call of the United Nations. While numbers are important, what you do with those numbers is much more significant. In the Battle of Kunu-ri, Korea, UN Forces faced a sudden assault by six Chinese divisions. Instead of retreating, Turkish Brigade absorbed and halted the Chinese attack, thereby saving the U.S. 2nd Division and UN Forces from total annihilation. However, they themselves were surrounded by Chinese forces. Under this dire siege, they fought for three nights until they ran out of ammunition. While it was believed that the Turkish Brigade had been annihilated, the Turkish soldiers, for whom the concept of ‘being taken prisoner’ does not exist in their war tradition, initiated the bloodiest bayonet charge of the entire Korean War. The Turkish soldiers launched a bayonet charge to the south, engaging in fierce hand-to-hand combat, breaking through the encirclement. During these battles, the Turkish Brigade suffered 717 casualties. Following these battles, the Commander of the UN Coalition Forces, General Douglas MacArthur, said, "the Turks are the hero of heroes. There is no impossibility for the Turkish Brigade." President Harry Truman awarded the Turkish brigade with a Presidential Unit Citation for their valiant efforts in saving the U.S. 2nd Division from total annihilation. The heroic struggle of the Turks at Kunu-ri against enemy forces that were far superior in numbers gave hope to the demoralized allied forces and became a turning point in the war. Yes, perhaps a lot of time has passed since this war, but to see what kind of a friend Turkiye can be when necessary, one may need to look back further than just a few years.

This guy literally thinks that Turkey should really say yes to whatever NATO dictates on it :D

Turkey was right to be mad about the entire air defense system fiasco. Check out how many times they asked their allies to give them Patriot technologies, and they were in dire need of them too considering the geographical neighbors they have....

When Türkiye makes a strategic move, all other countries can do is "cry" in defense. 😊

As a Turkish, Being a border country in a region where world diplomacy never stops, moreover, considering that our commercial and neighborly relations will be long-term, Although we have turned our face to the western world, we have to play a subtle game of chess to maintain our independence. Russia, Iraq, Syria etc. Although these countries are problematic neighbors, they are our valuable trade/market area.

As a third-party observer, I say let Turkey do Turkey things. I kinda like the Chad behaviour they have about solving problems, and they always seem to prefer peace over war. That can't be said for a few NATO countries.

Well Nato is not a democracy pact, it is a security pact

You missed a crucial point in 08:00, Turkey lacks air defence systems and requested American Patriot systems REPEATEDLY from the US because Greece's hostlie weaponization is an open threat to Turkey, despite these requests, America ignored those and Turkey had to take a deal with Russia to close this gap in it's defence systems, not only that, other NATO members have s300s in their systems as well, which is also made by Russia. And not to forget that USA kicked Turkey out from the F35 system which was directly supported and contributed by Turkey.

Amerikanın demokrasi tanımı. (Daha önce CİA Başkanı ve dış işleri bakanlarının ifade ettiği gibi) Bizim için diktatör bizimle beraber çalışmayanlar kendi halkının çıkarlarını koruyanlardır. Bizim için diktatör tanımı budur.

I was studying in Istanbul, Turkey during the coup of 2016. I am not Turkish and not a supporter of Erdogan, just a foreign student. So what you and West media fail to state is that the coup didn't fail because of the militia on Erdogan's side, but because common people didn't want anyone intervene in Turkey's domestic affairs, so common people have actually stood against the militia that has organised the coup. When I asked them "why would you defend Erdogan if you all want him out", for which many replied "He will be out by our will, not by the will of some Americans sitting on the other side of ocean". About kurds: Turkey had a problem with Kurdish minority long before Erdogan came, and actually the founding father Ataturk partially started that problem. Erdogan has actually achieved some kind of a peacefulness with them and as I know Kurdish people are one his biggest electorate. I wish you guys were more concerned about your own country rather than trying to "install democracy" all over the globe

If you're not against Turkey or oppose Turkey, you'll get the most important ally ever.

The Turkish maroon berets won the world special forces competition 4 years in a row beating the US delta force. During the Korean war the Turks had to look after the US troops who were not ready for the circumstances and fell ill and were scared for their lives while Turks were fighting like warriors. Turks defeated the British Armada and led to Churchill resigning, when it comes to war Turks do not loose.

What did you think? Did you expect to see a constantly passive passive country?

Turkey is a country that puts Turkey first. And to be honest, you can’t really blame them for that considering they’re stuck between NATO and Russia’s Alliances. Never been a big fan of their leadership but, love their people, their culture, and their dedication to our own putting their people and their people only first

When I visited Turkey, I saw that they don't just have soldiers, I think they have 400,000 internal armed guards, it made me feel that the Turks were not kidding. They are strong

An interesting point about Turkey is that it is also generally regarded favorably by most Balkan nations. While there is a long, and I mean 500 year long history of conflict between the Turks and the region, today most nations in the Balkans consider Turkey a valuable partner. It even bridges the gap between everyones favorite European shitshow that is Serbia-Kosovo-Albania.

“Being a Turk is difficult because you are at war with the world. It's harder not to be a Turk, because you're fighting a Turk."

Being a democracy was never a real requirement for joining NATO, Portugal was a real dictatorship and is one of the founders, because of its strategic importance. The embargo between members is also nothing new, Portugal suffered a major embargo from the USA during the war to defend territories in Africa, and at the same time USA sponsored some rebel groups. You forget to explain the delicate balance of the situation between Greece and Turkey.

It should not be forgotten that not only did turkiye move away from nato, but also nato moved away from turkey. They divided Syria and Iraq for their imperialist games and formed anti-Turkey organizations. They also offered money to prevent Turkey's refugees from entering the European Union and they did not give that money. they have always supported greece and disregarded turkey 's rights . I am a centre-left Turk who does not support Erdogan, but I do not only find Erdogan guilty on certain issues.

Sevgili dostlarımız hep söylediğimiz bir şey var. Biraz abartı ve kendini beğenmişlik diyebilirsiniz ama gerçek tarafı çok güçlü. “Türk olmak zordur, çünkü bütün dünyayla savaşırsın. Ancak Türk olmamak daha zordur, çünkü Türk’le savaşırsın” 😊

If you alienate a strategically important country, there will always be other countries that want to get closer to it.

There are so many one-sided thoughts in this video! While our compatriots were dying in Cyprus in the 1960-70s, we saw how NATO prevented Turkey from helping them and put embargoes. With the emergence of the PKK after the coup in 1980, we lost 40,000 soldiers, civilians, teachers, doctors and officers because of the PKK. We still continue to give martyrs every day. During operations in the mountains in Turkey, Swedish-made anti-tank weapons are still seized in the hands of terrorists. It is clear that they are constantly giving weapons, money and survival gear to terrorists. America gave thousands of trucks of weapons to the terrorist group called YPG, the "extension of PKK", formed in northern Syria. After the embargoes, Turkey realized that it could not trust NATO, and then it stopped relying on military technologies that were not in its own hands. That's why he asked for access to the patriots' codes so that we can protect our airspace if the Greeks attack Turkey in the future. Finally, I would like to point out that I am an atheist and although I am disturbed by the Islamization, these events are Turkey's internal affairs. America has no right to interfere in this. America wants leaders who obey its wishes. They say that if their demands are listened to, Turkey is democratic, if not, it is not democratic. Your hypocrisy drives us crazy. They bombed the TBBM in the coup attempt made by Fettullah Gülen with the support of the USA. Parliament is our red line! If you approach Turkey as a friend and do not become hostile, you will not find a better friend than us, but you choose the difficult one. After all, we are not stupid either. We will not take pkk supporter states into nato.

The Turks have a pretty strong martial reputation. I had a friend whose dad served in the rear areas during the Korean War. He talked about how different nations' troops would get in generally good-natured bar fights. He said no one would fight with the Turks because "They would come back and knife you in your sleep." Obviously an exaggeration, but it is true that the Turks can carry a grudge.

Before the check the comments I was expecting some misunderstood comments about Turkey well mostly I was wrong and I am happy with that. Turkey has unique situation we are not sharing our borders with Switzerland or something. We have to act like this way. We experienced many terrorist attacks. Usually western countries do not helping us so we have to find our way thats it.

It's a simple, We know who we are and we know who are the enemies

I dont think turkey movement against finland joining nato was selfish, it was a good display of international diplomacy and protection of your interests, they supported turkey enemies before and sanction turkey, now they need turkey help to avoid speaking russian, so turkey just told them "i hold the keys, what are you willing to pay for them" Thats geopolitics at its finest right there

Try At-a-Turk. This is how his Name is pronounced.As an Aussie we know him well because of his Brilliant defence against the Australian and New Zealand Armies attempted invasion in 1915.

For your info; Greece has Russian S-300 as an NATO member.

Turks inspire confidence in friends and fear in enemies! They won't sell their friends, but they won't forgive those who betray them ! Turks are very well aware of who is friend and who is foe !

To me as a Mexican American observer, Turkey is just being a sovereign nation. Just because we don’t like the choices she makes doesn’t mean they’re not allies. Turkey is a valuable ally to NATO and I doubt she’ll have issues finding other allies like China or Russia. I feel like Turkey can even make allies of traditional allies like India, Brazil, Mexico, Indonesia, etc. Very interesting game of chess that they’re playing.

Since the USA cannot hold Turkey in its hands, it prefers to send enemies from all over. There is only one thing he forgot, the Turks have been fighting for hundreds of years and they always have an active military potential, so they do not want it to develop militarily. He tried and succeeded to achieve this himself with the big military industrial steps he took in recent years in Turkey Sample ; Bayraktar...

All allies have nuclear power plants, why didn't they help us with energy? When Russia comes to Akkuyu, your voice is raised..

The Turkish nation shares everything with its friend, even a single bite, and fights with its enemy to the death. You do not scare the Turkish nation with an economic crisis or by killing them.

I absolutely despise you for using terms like "kurdish militia" "kurdish groups" when describing pkk. A terrorist organisation is a terrorist organisation and it should be addressed as such. Has it killed civilians? Yes. Then it's over. No arguing. No word plays. Haven't seen anyone call ISIS "militia" in US.

The funniest part of this video is accusing Turkiye of committing selfish diplomacy 🤣

We arent yours wildcard You are our wildcard We are Turkey you dont own us

You forgot two very important things, namely the shooting down of Russian planes in 2015. Turkey then asked for Patriot systems and received the answer that it could not get or buy them even though it is a NATO member. I think that one battery of Patriot rockets with a German crew came and was in southern Turkey for a short time without the control of the Turkish army. Then Turkey looks for a replacement and finds it in the S-400. Another thing is the 2016 coup. According to all claims, Erdogan was saved by a tip-off from Russian intelligence about his assassination, and this is where trust begins again on the Moscow-Ankara line.

I am impressed with the Turkish made weapons. They are very good. And Turkey is an important player in this war because it controls most of the coastline on the Black Sea, and it also controls the only exit and entrance to that sea. As well, Turkish President Erdogan seems to have some real confidence and courage as a wartime leader; something that Zelensky also has, in spades. And Turkey is rapidly becoming a major member of NATO because of this war, so Russia will not attack Turkey unless Russia wants to be destroyed by NATO. And finally, there is a long history of Ukrainian-Ottoman-Turkish relations, as well as trade, and immigration, with a large population of Moslem Crimean-Tartars present and fighting for their homes in Ukraine. So it is good that Turkey is on the right side. It is very good. So, from this guy in the USA - Glory to Ukraine.

Awesome video! Would be fascinating to see the same topic redone in light of the recent events (the escalating Israel-Hamas conflict). I have an inkling Turkey will have a role to play

Not the fucking “Mustahfa Kahmal ATARK” prononounciation im going insane omfg 1:51 (AND THEN HE SAID ATARAK OMG IM GONNA KMS)

It simply comes to Turkey own interest in the complicated region. NATO nations do not understand those and they are only understand their own interest. Turkey is a fine country after all. It can be open to criticism as well.

I was in Turkey thirty years ago. The thing I really noticed was that there were soldiers everywhere, and they all looked really well turned out and fit. At 0600 on a bus you can look at the camps, and everyone doing PT and assault courses. They don't muck about, from what I could see.

You touched a lot of major points without knowing any background on them. State vs. Administration position is something really different. Low hanging fruit.

Basically, the reason why Turkiye playing like this way is USA, France and Greece trying to divide Turkey into parts. Ask yourself that why USA too much intervene into Middle Asia.

I'm a normal American guy living in Turkey, it's awesome here.

Everything is a show of force and influence. This is a really bad strategy (my daddy is a police officer and will get you 🤡). Sweden suddenly wanted to join NATO (it is more complicated than this but I'm a Swede that don't want to spend all day typing). Most countries that belong to NATO loved the situation because of our closeness to Kaliningrad and the Baltic states (we already have a treaty with Finland and the US). The Swedish military power was of minor importance. There has lately been a change in the political leadership in Sweden. The rulers of yesterday did however manage (breaking the construction isn't uncommon here) to give citizenship to most of the people/terrorists that Turkey want sent back. If they are terrorists might be argued but the reality that the Socialdemocrats broke the law to make them "Swedes" is indisputable! Sweden want to join NATO but did everything possible to make Turkey an enemy. We kick their balls and then say that we are friends.

The subject of the video is Türkiye, but there is no Turkish translation in the subtitle. There is even Thai in RU-vid automatic translations, but strangely, a language that ruled the world for 600 years is not among these translations. this is a shame for RU-vid or worse it is afraid of the language.

US never reacted when Greece bought S300 a year before Turkey. Also, the US denied Turkey to buy Us Patriot system though later US offered to India which the Indians denied and they instead bought Russian S400. Turkey wanted to buy F35 which the US again denied. US foreign policy is made in Washington but finally approved by Israel.

Türkiye'den selamlar. zor bir coğrafyadayız. Etrafımız düşman dolu. Birde emperyalist sözde dostunuz görünen ülkelerin bizim düşmanlarımızı desteklediğini biliyoruz.O yüzden her zaman gözümüz açık ve tetikteyiz. yaşım 42. gerektiği yerde elimizden geldiğince ülkemizi ssvunuruz.

CSTO is Russia's failed NATO, and China's SCO is not really a military alliance as current enemies India and Pakistan are both part of it. (not to mention India and China's long running border conflicts)

Friends, one day, try to love your alliance when your alliance provides weapons to the enemies that martyred your soldiers, this must be very difficult.

Good video about the situation of Turkiye but it is much more complex than we see here. Reasons to get closer to Russia is not only a choise but also a must not to stay alone because of the sanctions from many western countries for weapons, strategical air defence system... etc. USA prefered not to sell a patriot even not to sell a basic guns glock for Turkish police forces. So if we can not get support from our allies what could we do? Either we beg to Nato to send us temporal Patriots or we could buy it from other sellers. So I would like to say that this actual situation is not only in responsibility to Turkey or Turkish government but also our western allies . As a conclusion if western allies will continue to protect PKK (changing their name as JPK or PJK or any other name) and say they are Kurdish allies of USA , take out from western military projects (F-35) , not give strategic equipments ... etc. what can be the result. Result is Turkiye should find new allies. Please do not forget also that Turkic nations are in this area since thausands years even no one know a continent of America , Turkic people was one of the oldest folk in the world.

To the point that Türkiye have S400s greece have also S300s and greece is also a member of Nato. I think it’s not a Problem

You forgot one very important reason Turkey is crucial to NATO defense. Turkey is a fortress. The mountains and harsh weather in the eastern parts makes the country very defensible, and this difficult terrain goes all the way to the west coast. Even during the Cold War, the plan in case of a Cold War turned Hot was for Turkey to hold back the Soviets in this harsh terrain until US forces arrived in mass. This is still the case even today. If Turkey was not part of NATO or it was removed, it would inevitably have to FORCEFULLY join CSTO for defense. This would be a huge blow to NATO not only because of Turkish Armed Forces and Economy or Geography, but also because of what is beyond Turkey. The Balkans. Greece and Bulgaria. These two are barely strong countries and if Turkey was to join CSTO or at least not be a part of either alliance, the Balkans would become another Baltic for NATO, a soft underbelly where bigger NATO forces would have to deploy a lot of their own troops to defend Greece and Bulgaria, just like Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. Turkey needs NATO and NATO needs Turkey. #TurkeyisNATO #WeAreNATO #StrongerTogether

"exiled businessman" hahaha

as a Turk who don't support every act of the current government i have to say Turkey always has been one of the most important and strongest allies of NATO and we proud of it, we are happy about it. considering this i didn't like the thumbnail. thank you.

RESPECT TO TURKEY REAL BRAVEHEART

I read the comments and was surprised how many non-Turkish people have such objective and detailed information and I congratulate them. Turks are born soldiers and when we are counted like other NATO members, every Turk will undoubtedly defend NATO's borders.

hi, you are making a video about turkey, there is no Turkish support in the translation and subtitle, it's a very funny incident 😂

"Ah-tark" AhTahRahk"

The main difference between all NATO countries and Türkiye; Türkiye's soldiers are the most experienced and skilled fighters of all the countries in NATO. ATATÜRK proved in 1915 in Çanakkale that with poor skilled but modernly equipped armies are doomed to lose on the battlefield.

As a secular Turkish nationalist, I approve Erdogan's strategy in the international stage.

As being a türk, i absolutely able to say that we never trust nato for our security, because our nato "allies" take every hostile action against us they can. The russo-ukrainian war shows us russia is no longer could be a threat for turkey, i think they also know that. We don't have any interest on nato anymore, so you'll do better if you create some interests about that.

You conviniently forgot that they argue that a large part of Greece, a NATO nation belongs to Turkey.

It's a video about an american crying why turkey doesn't bow infront of america

I'll bet most people would be surprised to know how long the Ottoman empire lasted and how recently it fell.

Selfish or Self Respect...

5:08 sounds familar

Dude the Turks fought in Korea. Their warrior class knows their value and have a proud history of being tough as nails. They sit confidently amid chaos and that’s because they’re smart.

I'm impressed by your in depth and honest analysis, well done. This must have taken a long time to prepare, I appreciate it. Two points I'd like to add: 1- Turkey purchased the S-400 system after USA refused to sell Patriot systems (it wasn't approved by the senate or something) and more importantly after we shot down a russian war plane in Syria (possibly assuming it was a Syrian aircraft) which caused a major political crisis - that Turkey was able to solve through a 2 Billion $ purchase... It's far from an ideal solution, we can't integrate them to the rest of our NATO air defence system, but here we are... 2- Fettullah Gulen is not a "businessman" and the scope and modus operandi of his organisation is fascinating if you can find trustworthy resources on it. It certainly blew the minds of millions of Turkish citizens after the failed coup attempt. There's good reason why many people believe CIA is behind his operation.

Turkey is not an american puppet it's an independent countrie ,turkey has its own interest ,make its own decisions

18:55 NATO'S Blue blended with the sea

As a Turk, I don't understand why we have to agree with America on every event in the world. A good friend speaks bitterly, we do not count as a friend those who shake their heads at everything. If you don't agree with America, which I understand from the explanations here, it seems to mean that you are a dictator. I think USA is an elephant in the glassware store. I am not implying that we do not have an autocratic leader, but American policy gives all these tools. Maybe everything would be better if there was no coup in Turkey supported by the USA or terrorists supported by the USA did not kill people in my country. Because,proportion of citizens voting in Turkey is over ninety percent although not in America. Erdogan cannot scare any ordinary Turkish citizen, just don't give him any more excuses.

S400 purchase also came after Turks downed a Russian jet, and a Russian ambassador killed in Turkey. Also some of the NATO members blamed Turkey for it and said it is by its own against Russia if it starts a war with it. So Turkey NATOs wild card, but NATO and the west is not exactly reliable either, there are lots of examples like this. For Turkey, trying to be neutral is not just an act, its a necessity.

NATO is nothing without Türkiye. Our military and regional power is indisputable. I don't know what our government will say, but if a referendum were held in my country today, a large percentage of them would say yes whether we leave NATO or not.better to join shanghai more serious

As a Turk I am not objective and frankly I don’t want to be. I might not always agree with Erdoğan’s politics however I certainly appreciate his stoic response to any foreigners. Our military history is very old and was always a crucial part of our national identity. We didn’t just happen to become NATO members but fought for it in the Korean War. Shed blood and tears. There is a famous saying in Türkiye” Turks have no friends other than Turks.” Very accurate statement if you spend some time outside of mainstream media and read up on our past. I am somewhat of a nationalist as many Turks and honestly take that as a badge of honor and not as something that I would ever try to disguise.

When Turkey lost this 2 sided game, WW 3 starts. It protects balance through this way and you are very open to be provocated by just a 20-minute video :D

Turkiye and it s people is not a wild card.. They are trustworthy friend and ally of all nations stand for good.

Every Turkish generation knows the culprits of their suffering by heart. Countless wars of our ancestors and unending terrorism in our republic borders created the most hardened, and experienced soldiers in the world. Every Turkish man has to serve in military. Every man here knows the seriousness of violence because it never left our land.

1:16 It is 2. Mehmed because it is not new version of Mehmed

Some backstory about Turkey's refusal and non-cooperation during the 2nd Gulf war (2003 Iraq invasion) - They blame Bush Sr.'s administration for a lot of the troubles with the Kurds they had during the 90s. Kurds are a fairly large (~35 million) ethnic group that's live in a territory split between Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Syria. They've been trying to create their own country for quite some time. None of the existing countries, quite expectedly, are very keen on this idea. The fact that the area is quite rich in gas and oil adds further pressure to the topic. Anyway, apparently Bush Sr.'s administration had promised the Kurds that they would support an independent Kurdish state if they rise up against Saddam. The rebellion did not succeed. The heavy fighting and harsh measures taken by forces loyal to the Iraqi central government resulted in a refuge crisis. About a million fled to Turkey. On top of that there was a wave of bolstered Kurdish nationalism in the region. The more radical elements allegedly carried out terrorist attacks. So, from Turkey's perspective the US proposal during the 2003 war sounded like - Hey fellas! The first Gulf war was fun, wasn't it! How about a new round? (**My understanding of this topic is superficial. As with anything related to multi-ethnic conflicts there are conflicting accounts and murky politics. I'll appreciate if someone can give more detailed description.** )

Pro tip: Wikipedia has audio files from the names of most famous people. You could also find Atatürk there.

"President Aragon".Man,who would not want that?

Huge respect to turkey for standing up against nato to get what they want

In simple English, this guy is saying "Turkey should not look-out for it's interest". There is also trust issues on both sides. Countries with failing economy and less developed than Turkey have joined the EU, simply bcz they are Christian nations. This is something some Turks would ignore

Turkish-USA relations are very deep and strong. Türkiye made the USA a superpower in the Middle East and Asia. The power that brought down the Soviets was Turkey, even though its closest ally, the USA, imposed an embargo on it under the influence of the Greek lobby. Turkey's power in the world is ten times the size and population of its country, and USA intelligence knows this best. If Turkish-American relations deteriorate, the USA will enter a process of collapse and disintegration, an outcome that neither state wants. Although the USA has made many strategic mistakes against the Turkish people in the last 120 years, the Turks have never betrayed this friendship. Didn't the USA appoint Erdoğan, whom it complained about today, to the presidency of Turkey? Didn't PKK, the bloodiest terrorist organization in the world, support PYD? Didn't he support Armenia, which occupied the lands of Azerbaijani Turks together with Russia? Doesn't he harbor Fetullah Gülen, who carried out a bloody July 15 coup, in his own country? Has Turkey ever betrayed the USA? Never?

because we are not afraid of war.

Turkey understands their positions and uses it as leverage against whichever sides exist in any situation to get what they want.
