@Jeremy Works for bullying inferior third world countries that have no chance of fighting back anyway.
Not so effective against a first world country with subs.
Tbh they were pretty much asking for it, the Ruskies just vetoed a UN Security Council Resolution calling for a ceasefire in Syria
I have to agree with Russia on this one TBH.
So like
They brought this on themselves
wait what did they bring on themselves ?
The eventual Turkish offensive against Assad
@Jeremy Heck you don't even need subs.
A couple of cheap Exocet anti-ship missiles will send a Nimitz to Davy Jones' locker in short order.
Erdogan is not backing down
As much as I don't care for the EU.. Erdogan's floodgate rhetoric leaves a bad taste in my mouth..
so thats how it begins
......
> Russia
> themselves
> """"eventual Turkish offensive against Assad"""""
Either Assad backs down or the Turks begin their offensive, and it doesn't look like Assad's backing down either
eventual too
man you'd tell me the lottery numbers
@Andrew Popa 2.0 The UN Security council can eat a bag of dicks.
Russia was invited into Syria, so their actions in Syria are completely legitimate.
instead of cassandring
I don't even care about Assad.
The Turks have zero legitimacy to enter Syria, besides Erdogans usual lust for conquest and domination.
Erdogan has given the Syrian Army until the end of February to withdraw back to the original lines before the Government offensive
Just 2 days ago he called a Turkish Armed intervention a "matter of time"
Why should the Syrian Army withdraw from their own territories?
erdogan needs war to hold power
just like russia needs war for same reason
Because in September 2018 Russia, Turkey and Iran agreed to turn the Greater Idlib Area into a de-escalation zone
they will keep high tension
Russia's the better of two evils in the matter, as far as I'm concerned.
Meaning that both the Rebels and the Government would withdraw they forces from the region
However, since then, the Syrian Government has launched 2 offensives against the rebels
The Turks and the Americans have blamed Assad, Russia and Iran for launching the offensives and not abiding by the ceasefire while the Russians have blamed the rebels for not abiding by the ceasefire and Turkey for supporting rebel groups
In short: it's a fucking shit show
@Tato Russia doesn't need war to hold power.
Putin's approval ratings are through the fucking roof.
because of wars
Another thing, the most recent Government offensive against the rebels has displaced nearly 1 million civilians, a lot of which have fled to the border with Turkey
werent' they like 50/50 recently?
duno
The last thing Turkey wants is another refugee crisis
@Andrew Popa 2.0 Last time I checked, Idlib is in Syria. Therefore it falls under Assad's jurisdiction. He has every right to smoke out those rebel scum.
And so here we are today
