    Erdogon will not create 11,000 votes out of nothing. Authoritarians get democratically elected and then they dismantle their country’s democracy guaranteeing their staying in power in the name of freedom.

      I’m surprised it’s even close.  Based on what I’ve heard about the earthquake it sounded like a lot of people in power were at fault.  there was an amnesty grant for lax building standards and builders kept using sub-par materials and standards.

        Im surprised Trump got elected considering everything. And came too close in 2020 & is still very viable to his base now. Putin?

        No accounting for peoples fascistic politics.

          Sure but in Turkey you’re looking at a government that sure looks like it bears a lot of responsibility for people being buried in rubble.  The buildings there were catastrophes waiting to happen.

            Yes.
             
            It’s what happens when people view regulation as a bad thing. Until the bad thing happens and then how did this happen & who is responsible is what everyone asks.

    And here’s the ask in exchange for agreeing to stop blocking Sweden in NATO
     
    [b]Erdogan Says E.U. Must Clear the Way for Turkey   [/b]
     
    President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey said on Monday that the European Union should open the way for Turkey to join the bloc before Turkey allows Sweden to join NATO, adding a surprising new condition that could further stall the military alliances efforts to expand, the [link=https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/10/world/europe/erdogan-turkey-sweden-nato.html]New York Times[/link] reports.
     
    Mr. Erdogans latest demand came a day before the opening of NATOs two-day annual summit, where leaders, including President Biden, had hoped to secure unanimous approval from member states to allow Sweden to become the 32nd member.
