Bilateral relations between Russia and Turkey may never be the same again Opinion | OmerOzkizilcik
Russian planes did not carry out strikes on the area of Idlib where Turkish units sustained aerial bombardments, according to Russia’s Defense Ministry, after 33 Turkish soldiers were killed in a brutal attack by the Moscow-backed Assad regime on Thursday night.
Despite the Turkish government announcing the attack was carried out by the Assad regime, the real blame for this heinous attack lies with Russia as is seen in the remarks by the Turkish Defence Ministry stating that the deployment of Turkish troops was coordinated with the Russian side, and despite communication with the Russians the attacks did not stop.
If Turkey decides on further escalation which seems more plausible than ever before – and this decision is backed by NATO – Turkey’s geostrategic positioning would shift. This is a clear demonstration of Turkey’s resolve to resist Russia's military solution and Turkey’s commitment to the UN’s Responsibility to Protect.
However, little or nothing indicates that Moscow has the cunning to do so. On the contrary, Moscow seems to be trying to squash the Turks in front of the eyes of the NATO alliance.
