This is Russia planting seeds for a pretext to invading Moldova.

They shouldn’t because the west said so and will bomb them into oblivion if they do.

theoretically speaking, what could Pootin do about Moldova potentially declaring a war on Romania and immediately surrendering? Wouldn't that make them NATO territory?

Reply to comment by my20cworth in Erdogan drops idea to postpone elections by sherry_waseer
Erdogan isn't like Trump or Bolsonaro. Unlike them, the vast majority of the country's population supports him. Barring another major earthquake that kills hundreds of thousands, he will easily win the elections.
In fact, tragedies like this one make the voters rally behind what they perceive to be a strong leader. His potential opponents are extremely weak in that aspect.

He’s a throwback to “good old fashioned values”. Namely, the king is fat and the peasants starve. Like we had during the Dark Ages.

This decision would have been hilarious if done in 1939, Hitler would have been so pissed off

Feel free to continue “simping” for Iran or Russia or Palestine or Syria.
Great places to be in if you have any western values.

I've looked at your posts, maybe stop simping for a far- right warmongering government like Israel so hard.

So much bullshit in one paragraph, it’s almost impressive.
I won’t waste too much time on an answer because honestly, if you’re not seeing the problem in a radical theocracy having nukes - there’s just not point in talking to you.
Iran, while having a crumbling economy, has chosen its side. It allied itself with Russia, provided weapons to it, supplies weapons to the houthis, to hezbulla, to Hamas, to Syria. They killed thousands of protesters in 2019 and 2022. They hang gays from cranes. They executed people who spoke against the government.
This is a country that cannot hold nukes (not to mention it would start a nuclear arms race with Saudi Arabia, maybe even Egypt..)
Regarding Palestinians - they are not treated as second class citizens. In fact, they are not treated as citizens at all - because they are not Israeli citizens. They have their own government.
Israeli Arabs on the other hand are, in fact, citizens, and they have every right an Israeli Jew or Christian or Druze or atheist or whatever. Because they are Israeli citizens.
There was a Muslim Arab party in the last coalition for god sake. There is a Muslim arab judge in the Supreme Court (who ruled against an ex prime minister accused of bribe and sent him to jail). There are arabs in the army. Because they are Israeli citizens.

Didn’t the recent earthquakes show that the Turkish earthquake grants were at best severely misappropriated?
