Hardly newsworthy is it. PM calls head of fellow NATO ally:Theresa May openly shows support to a state that is helping fund jihadists inside Syria but guess what, MSM aren't reporting it.

Hardly newsworthy is it. PM calls head of fellow NATO ally:
“This evening the Prime Minister called President Erdogan of Turkey to congratulate him on his victory in the Turkish Presidential elections.
The Prime Minister reiterated the importance of the bilateral relationship between the UK and Turkey and expressed her desire to continue working in partnership with President Erdogan and his government on our shared priorities including security cooperation, trade and investment, the situation in Syria and supporting a political settlement in Cyprus.
The Prime Minister thanked President Erdogan for Turkey’s support on the Chemical Weapons Convention Special Session and the leaders looked forward to meeting at the NATO Summit next month.”

You answered your own question.Tbf the mans a **** and how we haven't kicked turkey out of NATO for it's behaviour in northern syria and against the Kurds is beyond belief.
If Turkey wasn't so strategically important with whom it borders we would be treating Erdogans action differently imo
You’re meandering everywhere on that post.Just another piece in the jigsaw. Thats all. Im just putting all the information that i feel is warranted to give a view that western MSM dont give.
Its like the fighting in Southern Syria, Hadar, and the lack of reports from mainstream sites reporting that Israel and Al Qaeda attacking these villagers and destroying their farms causing food shortages and economic concerns for the area.
And for those people that have lost family members because of Edrogans support for jihadists im pretty sure they would find it newsworthy.
May thinks congratulating a dictator, in a rigged election, where some schools have been burnt down so votes couldnt be counted, is very concerning. I thought democracy was against these kind of elections?
I thought these were the reasons we try to bring peace to other countries?
Is it not part of the reason so many people have spoken out about rigged elections in Russia, NK and other countries.
But cos Turkey is an ally to the UK we should turn a blind eye to it all again?
Another example of how fucked up our foreign policy is.
Wtf is wrong with that?Id expect this from an authoritarian but British Foreign policy doesn't surprise me anymore.
Talk about not wanting to upset the good old taxpayer funding this sham.
