    And, by the way, if that’s because a European country has a part in Africa, ask Türkiye to “give back” its European part. And France has to give back all its overseas territories. And UK has to give back the Malvinas.🤦‍♂️

          The difference is that the European part of Turkey was not colonized by Turkey.

              If you want an honest answer about giving back Turkish territory in Europe, sure, they might as well since it makes little difference to the people there anyways as they’re all still going to be subject to US/EU domination either way. If you want to talk about what Turkey should actually withdraw from, they should return what they illegally occupy from Syria first.

      Yes, the UK should give back the last of its colonies. The Turkey one is ridiculous on its face. I don’t think you understand imperialism / colonialism.

        Before Ceuta and Melilla were Spanish territory they were Portuguese.

        And if we go back, we go full back. Let’s return all the Mediterranean to the Romans.
