      “We are still in favor of cooperation and friendship.”

      Sounds like a real bootlicker.

        Give me one example of a NATO bootlicker telling the truth. Those words are a meaningless to dress in silk the imperialism it’s trying to disguise.

          Turkey’s still going to be doing a balancing act between Russia and NATO no matter who gets elected. It’s reasonable for him to warn Russia against interference, especially since he’s running ahead of Erdoğan right now. If elected amidst Russian interference, he could make a lot of trouble for Russia. And speaking of imperialism, election interference is a form of imperialism.
