    Honestly, this will be great if it happens. EU racism has only shown that they are good at shooting themselves in the foot just to keep their supremacists ideas alive and the Amerikkkans happy. The biggest evidence of this is how Europe threw their industrial capacity to the toilet just to support NATO expansionism.

    I really hope NATO alongside the Western world collapses on its own.

    However, despite all attempts to become part of the Western world, Turkey continues to be kept aside, a clear confirmation of which is the fact that the country has not been accepted into the EU for more than 35 years.

    I don’t have too much of hope of such an event actually happening, but if it does, the west really will have shot itself in the foot (again) because of this reason. In fact, maybe Turkey will even threaten leaving NATO and joining BRICS as a bargaining chip for joining the EU.

      Turkey illegally occupies a third of Cyprus.

      Cyprus is an EU member.

      Any petition for EU membership needs unanimous support.

      The only way Turkey can legally join the EU is if they come to a solution with Cyprus, or Cyprus sells itself off, or the EU sells off Cyprus.

        Huh, I had no idea. Seems like kind of a poorly designed system where just 1 small country can hold off ascension.
