Turkey is not a full partner in BRICS yet it's pro west. Still in NATO and EU and will join BRICS. It's not about being pro or against West. Just create good relationships with other nations.

[@kharkanas6779]

@walidabdalla8742 To call Turkey pro west is like calling Hungery pro west. They are both in the western alliance,but they follow a very independent foreign policy, especially in regards to China and Russia. Besides, Turkey styles itself as a very big power. That's why it keeps trying to play east against west and west against east. Even their Palestine policy is immoral that way.
