Me on the Biden Administration’s decision to recognize the Armenian Genocide

Analysis | The U.S. formally recognized the Armenian genocide. Why now, a century later?

This move signals a shift in the U.S. relationship with Turkey.

The speech Erdogan is giving now began with a statement on the need to respect the religious beliefs of others. As he’s continued, he has accented the Israeli occupation and the need to make Jerusalem the Palestinian capital.

I’d be more impressed if Ankara announced the closure of Turkish airspace to Russian traffic.

Credit where credit is due. Turks stepping up and calling what is happening in Ukraine a war thus giving them the right to block Russian warships from transiting the Bosporus.

Ankara has had time and opportunity to make a political issue out of the mass at Sumela. All in spite of nationalist efforts to have it canceled. Seems to confirm a) no appetite for raising tensions w/🇬🇷 and b) Zaferists/Mavi Vatanists only so influential.

This is, in fact, his second recent comment re: Greek "occupied" islands. Still not clear what he's referring to.

This is the first time I see Erdogan referring to recognised sovereign Greek territory as "occupied". While Turkey continues to claim Greek islands have to be demilitarised, it has not yet officially claimed any part of the Greek mainland as being occupied. A clear escalation.

Allusions to a Turkish military invasion of Gaza is certainly a look. But then again, likely he couldn't help himself.
