There's where the Presidency has dropped. And as I always say, WE'RE the deranged ones for tracking this nonsense. So then Trump Whisperers: when has he destroyed Turkey's economy "before?". This thread feels so entirely redundant at this stage, and unbecoming of this forum. You can't debate a man this demonstrably nonsensical in his utterances, it's like Art Critics reviewing kindergarten hand painting.

Regardless of what turkey think the Kurds have for better or worse been a strong ally of the USA and trump seems happy to just throw them under the bus. This despite a clear bipartisan displeasure of the decision by trump. I mean the Turks have made no secret of their feelings on the Kursk and the YPG. They consider them terrorists and trump has basically given the Turks free reign in northern Syria. And what happens if the Kursk are attacked or leave the isis fighters under their control ? These isis fighter most likely won’t just go back to what they are doing pre isis will they. They’ll be free and it’ll be like the stopping of isis never happened.

Sounds to me like Putin is cashing in his chips. He's getting Don to do as much as he can, while he can. Work to discredit the report and also force Ukraine to make peace with Russia, get those sanctions lifted. Meanwhile, sort Syria out by withdrawing troops. Cause discord in America politics, and sure if the deficit is ballooning all the better. Get NATO to fracture, the G7 too. Not much left on Russia's to do list.
