Bahçeli (Head of MHP), said that Russia is not strategic partner and ally of Turkey, said that Putin plays both sides. It is not possible to disagree with this determination. However, it was not necessary to deceive so much to make this determination. Because, after several economic and military attacks coming from the USA, we have pointed out a few times that trusting Russia will bring new deceptions to the agenda, just like the USA. However, we know that we have had difficulties in explaining our purpose for years because of the condition that society has to be with the USA or Russia. However, the bilateral deception was soon seen after rapprochement with Russia. Now it is coming to prefer the Russian duo played by the Syrian regime to Turkey. However, if it had been known or forgotten that the USA and Russia had agreed to share the world on the basis of exploitation years ago, I think that Russia would not be trusted and a new devotion would be challenged.
At this point, it was disappointing to those who saw Russia as an ally who can be a friend in the face of being openly alongside the Syrian regime by pushing aside the words it made by not being loyal to the signatures it put on the table and all the words made by Russia. As for instance, while the Syrian opponents took back the village of Neyrab, which is close to the M-4 highway in Idlib, from the regime, the news came that the Russian fighter jets bombed the area the next day. In short, Russia considers itself tasked with protecting and guarding the Assad regime. It is the result of the Erdogan-Putin meeting, which was announced to meet on March 5th, days before, was revealed in the statements made by Russia. It seems as if Russia is in favor of a triple meeting that includes Iran instead of the bilateral summit. However, the fact that a bilateral meeting never took place on 5 March should not mislead anyone.
In these days it came to such a negative point in relations with Russia, US Secretary of State Pompeo, said in a statement in Idlib, "We are negotiating with Turkey to see what we can do together. The regime will not be able to achieve a military victory." Of what can be done with Turkey on Syria if the US has ever seen, he could not understand that an approach like they understand in the final negotiations. In short, far from sincerity, Turkey faces an explanation of distraction. This description also look through the eyes of a statement that Russia would not be wrong for Turkey to distraction. Because what is certain now is the US's PKK/YPG terrorist organization attitude, and Russia's attitudes towards the Syrian regime do not change. The United States has not ceased to create a new Kurdish region in our south, and to further protect its presence in Russia by expanding Syria. All steps taken without considering this fact will be wasted. In this respect, it should not be believed from now on, the words and signatures. If we believe, new deceptions and frustrations will be inevitable.
As a result of Turkey's foreign policy seems inevitable outside the US and Russia to create a new alternative. It seems clear that this is not easy, but there is no other way left.
