Quoting: Revbo™ On top of that, Trump just doubled down on sanctions against Turkey this morning. That's what I was referring to. Those sanctions are what's doing this to the Turkish currency.

I've worked with a lot of Turks and they aren't a backwards group....quite progressive. Quoting: Billy Ringo ya, but the government has a pretty good hold on the media, and the Turkish people are very nationalist in spirit. If the government starts telling the people that they're being attacked by foreigners, they'll quickly rally around Erdogan and do whatever he says. The Turkish people are very easily riled in that regard. |
