| #3 Just a reminder: It was the Erdogan regime that blocked the election of Rasmussen as NATO Secretary General until he agreed to apologize in fron of Islamic potentates, humiliating himself and NATO, and undermining NATO's deterrence. He apologized for respecting the laws and customs of his country when he was Denmark's PM. He apologized for the civil rights, the human rights and freedoms guaranteed by Denmark and all Western Democracies. In the past the Western Alliance risked catastrophic escalation to preserve these freedoms even in militarily indefensible territories like e.g. during the Berlin crises in the 50s and 60s. It is no exaggeration to say that NATO has permitted the Erdogan regime to pervert its very raison d'etre. |

| #2 "Turkey has not invoked article five which envisages all allies coming to the aid of a member country that is the victim of an attack. "But, given that numerous Turkish citizens appear to figure among the casualties, it is understandable that (Ankara) triggers political dialogue with its parners," the diplomat added. |
