Our View: Delusional strategic alliances ignore reality

How quickly, to save himself, Erdogan may change; for Turkey, or "Turkishness", he has a Legacy to fulfill (and this choice).

Cyprus may well be re-united by next spring, with a small change of intentions from him. And it is in the Navtex, "his" way forward, nestled in it a recognition of the Cyprus that exists as it did in 1960. Beware, "You" the servant slaves, the parasites, as he calls the Turks of Cyprus, you may be shown "your place", when Turkish Cypriots return to the Legislature they abandoned; if Greek Cypriots have their representatives waiting this time, in the Communal Chamber for the other members. He knows that nothing can be gained otherwise, that Cyprus must exist, and that without it only War.

Erdogan may well find for his own efforts at Constitutional Reform something to emulate in Turkey with an end to the Problem, in Cyprus. A united Cyprus brings Hope. A "Greek" Cyprus, like a Turkey of "Turks", does not. What is a BBF (like the USA) in Cyprus is not anathema to his own goals either, in Turkey. More than anyone, Erdogan knows this; Hope, to who, is his issue, as a politician he has about half the population of Turkey either way who would support him. And either way he has the world's attention.

...it will be a long hot summer.

Indeed the "Turks" have opened a can of worms with their new attempts, to rule the sea. And like a festering wound, to the rest of the world, "Turkishness" what it means to "Turks" is spreading. Its filth, remains to be contained; Erdogan may do just that. Beyond Cyprus, it divides even Turkey, now.

...think where the world is heading, never mind how the world finds themselves' together; on so many levels, him the "but one".

Cyprus is small but it is not insignificant. Ignoring this fact is delusional.

What is Erdogan's Turkey may fail by then, (this summer,) how quickly things could change. Think Economics, think Civil War, think his many wars, think Daesh no "brother" in such a weakened state returning this time against him.

If there is no Hope for "Turkishness", to survive, this may already be apparent to him, then, for Turkey he'll strive.

...i would not be so sure of things the way they are MrH, things won't stay the same, "you" might go the way of the "Greeks" quite soon.
