| Turkey Suspends Political, Military Ties with France |
| 2011-12-23 |
| [An Nahar] Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced a raft of political and military sanctions on Thursday after French politicians approved a bill making it a crime to deny Armenian genocide. Turkey will recall its ambassador from Gay Paree and suspend mutual political visits as well as joint military projects, including joint exercises, Erdogan said. "From now on we are revising our relations with La Belle France." Most of the sanctions imposed on La Belle France, a NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. A single organization with differing goals, equipment, language, doctrine, and organization.... ally, will be in the military sphere. Turkey will now decide on a case-by-case on every military demand made by EU member La Belle France to use Turkish airspace and military bases, Erdogan said, and will from now on reject any French demand for its military vessels to dock at Turkish ports. Erdogan said Turkey would boycott a joint economic committee meeting in Gay Paree in January and would not take part in twinning projects with La Belle France. |

| #3 I wonder about the rumor that Erdogan has rectosigmoid cancer, and how far along it is. Typically, colon cancer is pretty deadly, because it remains undetected until too late, which is why there is such emphasis on colonoscopy screening. However, rectosigmoid cancer is so low in the colon that it tends to give itself away earlier on, improving treatment odds. But as with many other cancers today, with improved treatment techniques, the most dangerous thing is procrastination. Those who delay treatment die. |
