@braxon . NATO members are completely allowed to have their own disputes between each other . All it means is that Their Dispute CAN NEVER BECOME A NATO ISSUE . They have to fight it out for themselves .

@SirBedevereTheWise . Yes , I know . That " See Fit " part is the Kicker . No-One MUST respond . It's optional . Clearly , the situation would be CLOSELY monitored , and diplomatic pressure applied , to Both sides . If , however , Turkey DOES , unnecessarily , withdraw from NATO , then obviously Greece would then have the Umbrella of the Alliance behind them . NATO is NOT a " Bomb Throwing Club " , it's a Strategic Alliance between a number of Sovereign Nations with similar or Compatible Political stances . I re-iterated - Erdogan is the Real problem .

@braxon . That is not what I said. However , They DO have the Right to Bicker without it being a NATO issue . A Few Skirmishes is No-one else's Business . If it turns into Full mobilisation , technically IT STILL ISN'T . I do think there WOULD be " Memo's from Head Office , though . NATO is a Strategic Alliance . It DOES NOT Over-ride the Sovereignty of any Member State . That's something the U.S. should remind themselves of Once in a While .

@Xio189 . You're Correct about the Economic Alliance thing . And Wrong about it's future . Either way it definitely has nothing to do with NATO .

@Xio189 . Well............it's not at all Obvious . There is a Probability ratio certainly , but absolutely no Guarantee .

@Xio189 . Wrong about BRICS becoming the Premiere Economic Alliance / Bloc . Russia is all but Broke right now , and China are threading a Needle with runaway Hyperinflation . And those are the two " Big " players .

@braxon . I never said they are ALLIES . Don't make shit up to suit your Narrative . They ARE both Member States of NATO . That changes the way Article 5 comes into play , is at all . Get THAT through your head please .

@braxon . NATO is a Strategic Alliance , for mutual protection OF THE ALLIANCE MEMBERS . That is what " The Parties " means in the Article Statement . Remember that Turkey and Greece were added to NATO basically together in 1952 so clearly things were going well at that time . If , over time , two of the " Parties " develop a rift that's simply WHAT HAPPENED . It's between them . NATO will surely be CURRENTLY putting some Diplomatic pressure to settle the Matter . But at this point in time that's all that can be done . If Turkey WERE to withdraw from NATO , then sobeit . They would , of course , lose the " Umbrella " that NATO provides . However , NATO and BRICS membership are definitely NOT mutually excluding . One a Strategic Alliance , and the Other, an " Economic Community " . Only related in the vaguest of terms , those two . Erdogan is the Problem , of course .

@TCK-9 . Yep . The Erdogan problem I have mentioned Several times .

Actually , that's kinda difficult . Turkey is one of the FOUNDING MEMBERS .
