As for kurdistan, I don't mind if it will be in Iraq or Iran, but Turkish lands are certain today and will never change. We have enough lands for those who will attempt changing it to fill in. Just like their ancestors.


So you wouldn't mind Kurdistan in Iraq? Lovely, pass that on to the Turkish government, please. They still oppose it!

Only in your dreams :lol: or some imperialists would like Turkish lands to be their tomb like their ancestors ? I don't think that westerns will do the same mistake again. They must have learnt somethings from the history. It is certain what happens to those who attempt to touch Turks.

Why?

Because Turkey would lose something like 40% of itself, and that's valuable land that would've been lost in the West, especially Istanbul the de facto capital of Turkey (because screw Ankara).

If the AK Party becomes more islamist then it already is, Turkey would become a dictatorship. The election laws are rather rigging the game, you see?

Try the treaty of Sèvres on my country? It isn't mentioned in it. Turkey just grabbed a lot of territory that didn't belong to the Turkish people. After murdering over one million Armenians, expulsing tens of thousands of Greeks, and subjugating millions of Kurds, the Turkish republic was only allowed to keep its borders because it was an ally of the west against the SU.

SU is gone. Turkey is increasingy hostile to the west - the EU doesn't want all the hopeless unemployed extremists from Anatolia swamping its already fragile economy. Oppressing Christians still goes on in Turkey. Mentioning the Armenian holocaust will get you jailed. I'd venture that Turkey is running out of purposes. And religious extremism/ rampant nationalism will last only so long.

Where it writes ? Ankara is the heart of Turkish Republic. Istanbul is just important for its tourism and history, but not a de-facto or something like that for my country. Like New York is not de-facto capital of USA.

White people grabbed a lot of territory that never belonged to them. When all of white people leave America, Australia etc. we may think. They'll do it first.

Btw, you said '' expulsing ''. We made a population exchange getting agree with Greek government of the time. They did the same. They expulsed the Turks in Greece as well. But I don't even mention the genocide attempts of bulgarians to my nation.

Already sorta-recognized nations:
1. Taiwan
2. NTC of Libya
3. Kosovo
4. Western Sahara (not necessarily the Polisario Front, although that currently is the alternate government to Morocco there)
5. Palestine

Non-recognized nations:
1. Abkhazia (Georgia's not going to get it back, and recognizing it may be a way to prevent Russia from annexing it)
2. Somaliland (It'd be nice to see a functioning government in the current territory of Somalia)
