Both Russia And Turkey Continue To Trade Accusations Against Each Other



RT: Moscow says Turkey poses ‘real threat’ to Russia, relations with Ankara ‘won’t be same as before’

Relations between Moscow and Ankara will not return to how they were before, and the current line held by the Turkish authorities doesn't allow for any positive forecasts about future cooperation between the two countries, Deputy Foreign Minister Aleksey Meshkov has said.

According to the Russian diplomat, Ankara has drawn a line under the relationship.

“As things stand now, the line that the current Turkish leadership has adopted – both in terms of its complete unwillingness to acknowledge its responsibility for the unprovoked attack on the Russian Su-24, and in terms of getting rid of double standards in the fight against international terrorism – does not allow [us] to make positive forecasts,” Meshkov told RIA Novosti on Wednesday.

The more I watch Turkish moves the more I believe Turkey presents more of a threat to herself than anyone else.

Historically Turkey has been the bully kid on the block and can't stand then it's no longer the biggest and stronger .
