Turkey has entered an alliance with Russia<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 which for a NATO-member is like\u00a0<em>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalresearch.ca\/unspoken-divisions-within-nato-sleeping-with-enemy\/5805828\">sleeping with the enemy\u201d<\/a><\/em>.

Such a partnership with a NATO enemy is indeed an absolute no-go for the west.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.\u00a0Under this alliance, Turkey has decided to buy theRussian S-400 Air Defense system<\/strong>, instead of the US Patriot system, as it would behoove for a NATO member, especially one as crucial as is Turkey.<strong>\u00a0Patriot\u00a0<\/strong>(standing for\u00a0<em>Phased Array Tracking Radar for Intercept on Target<\/em>) is\u00a0<strong>a surface-to-air missile and anti-ballistic system. It is NATO\u2019s air defense system.\u00a0<\/strong>Instead, Turkey\u2019s decision for the more sophisticated, more precise and effective Russian S-400 is a strong backbone for her alliance with Russia.<\/p>\n<p>3. President Erdogan brokered in 2017 a US$ 2.5 billion deal with President Putin for the S-400. First deliveries of the S-400 missile batteries arrived in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>4.\u00a0<strong>The S-400 system is said to pose a risk to the NATO alliance as well as the F-35<\/strong>, America\u2019s most expensive weapons platform.\u00a0Turkey was severely sanctioned at the time by President Trump, notably by a foreign-manipulated currency devaluation of the Turkish Lira \u2013 which had a devastating impact on Turkey\u2019s economy.\u00a0It is unusual, almost unheard of, for Washington to \u201cpunish\u201d a NATO member for misbehavior.<\/p>\n<p>5.\u00a0<strong>US warship\u00a0<\/strong><strong>USS Nitze<\/strong><strong>\u00a0barred from entering the Black Sea through the Turkish controlled Bosporus<\/strong>.

The rapprochement, if it succeeds, would further complicate the domestic and regional dynamics in northern Syria without securing any clear advantage for Erdogan beyond, perhaps, in the upcoming Turkish elections.<\/p>\n<p>11. Remember the\u00a0<strong>Russian Involvement in Syria<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 when the US was chased out of Syria? At the request of President\u00a0Bashar al-Assad\u00a0\u2013 Russian military, mostly air force interference from September 2015 until the end of 2017, was largely responsible for Washington\u2019s significant withdrawal, albeit not complete, from Syria. In 2017, when \u201cmission accomplished\u201d, Russian combat troops were withdrawn, but Russia keeps a nominal military police presence in Northern Syria.<\/p>\n<p><strong>12. Turkey\u2019s Bombshell \u2013 a few days ago, rejecting Sweden as NATO member<\/strong>, may have been the proverbial straw that broke the camel\u2019s back. For a new country to become a NATO member, ALL NATO nations must approve the new candidate.<\/p>\n<p>13.\u00a0<strong>Sweden says they cannot meet some of the Turkish conditions<\/strong>. Among them are Turkey\u2019s accusations that Sweden is supporting members of the Kurdish Working Party \u2013 the PKK, archenemies of Erdogan\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>14. According to a Turkish Crisis Group, some 30,000 to 40,000 people are estimated to have died in fighting between the PKK and Turkish government, since 1984.<\/p>\n<p>15.\u00a0<strong>Maybe there were also some Russian interests at stake in Turkey\u2019s rejection of Sweden as a NATO member.<\/strong>\u00a0Although peace has prevailed between Sweden and Russia, since 1809, the two countries never achieved a close relationship, unlike the situation with other neighbors. This is particularly the case with the current Swedish Government.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Turkish General Elections on 14 May 2023<\/strong>.<\/h2>\n<p>If the timing of the earthquake was part of a plan, it would fit perfectly into the coming General Elections on 14 May 2023. President Erdogan and his Justice and Development Party (AK Party), are currently not doing well in popularity polls.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on his dealing with the consequences of the earthquake, he and his Party may gain or lose in approval ratings. Usually, \u201enatural\u201c disasters do not bode well for the governments in place, regardless of whether they bear any responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>In any case, new elections bring new \u201copportunities\u201d. In the meantime, it is clear to most analysts, that no elections are truly \u201cdemocratic\u201d \u2013 that there is literally no election in the world in which the decisive vote \u2013 the decisive influence \u2013 is not exerted by the Anglosaxon western empire.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Replacing Erdogan with a US stooge, might bring Turkey back as the desired all obedient NATO country, no alliance with Russia, no more \u201csleeping with the enemy\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Is it a coincidence that just a few days after Turkey rejected Sweden\u2019s candidacy for NATO membership, a massive, deadly and all-destructive earthquake hits Turkey, with serious\u00a0 ramification for Syria, and even impacting on Cyprus and Lebanon.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Was The\u00a0Earthquake the Consequence of A Terror Attack? No Evidence<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Artificial earthquakes have been prompted before.\u00a0For example, the 12 January 2010 earthquake off Port-au-Prince, capital city of Haiti, is suspected having been prompted by underwater \/ underground explosions, in order to bring huge oil reserves lodged largely around the shores of the Caribbean Sea, closer to the surface to be easier accessible and exploitable.
