If the WEST is "narvous" about Turkiye joining BRICS, Then the WEST needs to Advance Turkiye into the EU!!!!. Very simple., Turkiye have been trying to join the EU for decades with no luck. As far as human rights issue, EU needs to "suck it" and understand Turkiye national concerns. Erdogan will never be a "yes man" and play as Europe's lapdog!. He conducts his politics to what is best for Turkiye, NOT Germany, France or anyone else..

How does Erdogan think that’s going to work out for Turkey.

[@metinakpinar9724]

Nato is a defense alliance not a trade alliance. Turkey should trade with who ever it wants so its economy can prosper. Same goes for other countries.

[@ReelBuzzerEdits]

europe is useless at the moment for turkish economy, dollar needs to be overthrown.

Hahahahhahahaahahhaajajaj

[@muhammadfathurrahmanakbar7917]

Be careful Turkey with that kind of country, and don't very close relation with them because you're a member of NATO

[@osmanisildak2448]

Economic and defense concerns are separate - and plus chances are high that we are not going to be a nato member for very long couple more decades max
