Turkish journalist Nejat Eslen (Nejat Eslen) on the pages of the "Odatv" publication reflects on the prospects for the development of military cooperation between Turkey and Russia, as well as the reasons for the hysteria of the United States and NATO due to Turkey's desire to acquire Russian S-400 complexes.
According to the author, the S-400 air defense system is capable of changing the strategic balances of forces in any region, in which it is located. By deploying an air defense system in Syria, Russia has completely changed the strategic balances in this country. Even American planes, to take to the air, began to notify Russia.
Journalist commented on the benefits for Turkey with satisfaction, in case of purchasing a powerful Russian weapon:
“The S-400 air defense system, if deployed near the Aegean Sea, could change the strategic alignment of forces in this region in favor of Turkey. And if we place the S-400 in the Eastern Mediterranean region, we will gain strategic advantages throughout the region ".
Nejat Eslen gives a brief description of the Russian military complex.
S-400 with a detection range of up to 600 kilometers and radius of coverage area up to 400 kilometers represent strategic weapons systems. Besides, the air defense system is important and therefore, which shows the geopolitical orientation and positioning of the supplier country. Due to the, that the S-400 are capable of changing strategic balances, many states, primarily the USA, want to prevent Turkey from acquiring these weapons systems.
Let me remind you the essence of the conflict.
With the beginning of negotiations between Turkey and Russia regarding the acquisition of the S-400 acting. U.S. Secretary of Defense Shanahan (Shanahan) sent to the Minister of National Defense of Turkey Hulusi Akara (Hulusi Akar) a letter threatening US sanctions in the event of a purchase of the military system from Russia. Turkish President Erdogan reacted quickly and angrily, informing the Americans, that the S-400 will be bought.
After that, Americans backed up.
Pentagon spokesman Eric Paehon (Eric Pahon) He stated:
“The US highly values Turkey as a key strategic ally. Moscow, exploits the split between the US and Turkey over the S-400 and hurts our deep relationship. ".
That's how harmful, is, buy weapons not from the USA.
The author of the publication asks a question, if the US values Turkey so much as a key strategic ally, why:
- prepared the ground for military intervention in Turkey, to overthrow statesmen, who no longer wanted to work with, and this led to economic crises and internal conflicts?
- implementing the "Arab Spring", under the pretext of establishing democracy, dragged all the neighboring countries of Turkey into chaos, doomed people to suffer, living in the region?
- Supported and continue to support the Kurdistan Workers' Party for years (PKK), which seeks the partition of Turkey?
- do not recognize the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRSK) and prevent its recognition by other states?
- obstructed the sale of Patriot air defense systems (Patriot), when Turkey wanted to buy them, as well as unmanned aerial vehicles and other weapons?
The author stresses, that the United States is losing its dominance in the world, and NATO turned into a paper tank. Americans are not even capable of subjugating North Korea. Trade wars and sanctions have not helped the United States achieve results.
Journalist Quote:
"French people, Germans, Italians will not fight for NATO. Due to such weak states, like Bulgaria, Romania, Poland and the Baltic countries, NATO will not be able to maintain stability. Support for American policy from the peoples of other countries has dropped to zero ".
The author considers the unification of Turkey ideal, Russia and Iran into a coalition. In this way, given countries' resources, vast geographic space, separating the Atlantic and Asia-Pacific centers of power from each other, demographic structures of the three states, strategic regions controlled by them, as well as Russia's nuclear potential, an important center of power may emerge in Eurasia, and in the world - a three-polar structure. This development of events portends a geopolitical disaster for the United States..
Necess Eslen is sure, Turkey shouldn't be trusted by the US, and there are no guarantees, that American planes won't one day attack Turkey. The S-400 air defense system is the best weapon to defend Turkey against possible US attacks.
We don't trust the USA either!
And I really like the union of Russia, Turkey and Iran.
Strong geopolitical move!
