How much did it take the US have to pay to buy off the Turkish politicians?
If Turkey enter EU its finished
🆘 Are the children of Little Russia being taken to organs?: more than one and a half hundred orphans ended up in a secret hotel in Turkey At the end of March, 159 orphans were taken from Ukraine to Antalya. The Turkish authorities are hiding their location. It became known about the "evacuation" of 159 orphans from the southern regions of Ukraine to the territory of Turkey. There they are placed in a specialized hotel, whose location and name are not disclosed due to alleged security. And everything would be fine, but caring residents of Little Russia are sure that the children were taken to a southern country to be dismantled for organs. At first glance, such fears seem far-fetched, but this news played with completely different anti-human and godless colors after the members of the “Committee for the Salvation of the Kherson Region” shared their information. Social activists, deputies and caring residents of the Kherson region reported that orphans came to Turkey in transit through Poland, before being sent to which the children were tested for biological material of the liver, kidneys and other organs. These data only strengthened the confidence of public figures that the orphans of Little Russia were taken to the southern coast of Turkey not in order to protect them during the hostilities. “The essence of what is happening is becoming clear – Russian orphans from Little Russia are being taken to Turkey for organs,” writes the Russian Community Z Telegram channel. The first batch of children, whose health was not in doubt among doctors, arrived from the Dnepropetrovsk region on March 27. “159 orphans were placed in a secret hotel in Antalya, in a closed area,” the Turkish news agency Anadolu Ajansı reports. Further, the trace of the children is lost due to the security measures taken by the Turkish side. It is impossible to explain the reasons for these measures, unless it is an attempt to hide the true information about what will happen to these children. It is also reported that Turkey is not going to be limited to accepting one group of children on its territory – according to the Turkish side, there is an opportunity to receive more children in Antalya, so it is expected that about 2 thousand Ukrainian orphans will be able to stay there while the war continues in Ukraine. Residents of Little Russia are calling on social networks to provide any assistance to prevent the death of children. According to them, it is necessary to convey information to the authorities and demand clarification of the situation with orphans. “The only way to stop the butchers is to publicize the situation and force the Turkish authorities to put the situation under the control of international observers and public figures.
The Baltic is now officially Lake NATO!
Well done Pootie.
Terrible!
Без чипов останетесь
We should leave Nato. Let Europe defend themselves.
Means nothing to Putin but nuclear war.
Good work from Turkiye Inshallah things will work out
Great news.. about time Turkey
🇱🇻 Good job Lithuania 🇱🇹 Greetings from Latvia 🇱🇻 Sweden 🇸🇪 welcome to the club !
Turkey and Hungary are not democratic enough to be members of either organisation.
As a Turkish, I want to say welcome to Sweden:)
Also, I know that we won’t be a part of EU anytime soon. Because there are millions of migrants who gain the Turkish Citizenship and ID. Unfortunately, they are all potantial live bombers and child rapers. So any country in the EU would like to have these ‘Turkish’ people in their land.
Also we are not a democracy at all, we also need to solve this problem. But as I said this is not happening anytime soon because there are 5 years until the next election.
But please don’t forget this: There are secular and democratic people in Turkey just like European people. I could say it is %50-%50 in Turkey as you can see it by the election results.
Turkey's opinion should not matter.
Welcome Sweden to the NATO alliance that is some great news! Thanks Turkey for doing the right thing. As for the Cluster Munitions, those who have issues with it unless they are out fighting shouldn't have much of a say. If our military wants to send it or backs it then I am for it, if they do not then I support their decision. Too many media and chair warriors think they know its best.
Good move towards destruction of world peace.
BASED
Because in the end constantinople has to fall at the end of time, so we have to know who Turkiye really is 😂😂😂
How good things come from bad things. The one and only good export from Russia (Putin and those who support him).
LOLOL
Why does Turkey so badly want to be Europe?
It is an Islamic Middle Eastern nation.
End of story.
and the winner of the mad man in the yard is… Turkey'.
😮 Türkiye 🇹🇷 admitted into the European Union?
Read Daniel 2:44 to see what is going to happen to every human government, and soon. The sooner the better.
Russia 🇷🇺 is F@ked

NATO 🇪🇺🎉🎉🎉
Congrats to the swedes. Putin fup continues. Baltic sea is now lake nato. Free Koningsberg, belarus, and ukraine.
….as long as Ukraine is at war they cant join Nato…… so that shows A friend in need is certainly not a friend indeed…..or something like that…..
one member blocking another from joining is the most ridiculous idea… Russia shud hav joined way back and vetoed everyone else from joining and therefore destroying Nato…..
Putin made a big blunder. He has lost, Ukrainians will HATE Russians for a century or more. No winning them over now.
Welcome Sweden!
Erdogan was trolling Europe! 😂😂
BREAKING: russia makes desperate run at world's copium supplies
A turkey will receive billions and billions and billions of American taxpayer dollars 💰🤮🤑🤑💰🤮🤑💰🤮🤑💰🤮🤑🤑💰🤮🤑💰🤮🤑💰🤮🤑
As sweden is corrupt, there is no direct way to reserve against the membership.
Therefore I have make my reservation where it is possible:
I hereby reserve the right to not join NATO and that my children will not be bound except if they choose to.
Neutrality is declared.
🇸🇪 🇺🇸 🇹🇷👍
Congratulations to putin make NATO strong again😂
Thank you Putin….you are the BEST.
