@bowhunter8532 They're not getting the fighter jet, nor have they tied it to this. What they wanted was extremely simple. For Sweden to stop financing armed groups which are blowing up schools and hospitals in a Nato member state. Pretty reasonable request. You like or not liking them doesn't change this reality.

@stephane1623. These were all softball questions which were obviously intended to get a certain narrative across. Are you some paid troll trying to make these lunatics look good or something?

I'm thinking Jim Cramer should stop talking about geopolitics. The absolute level of cringe.

@Elkhair, You don't have to shutter what he was promised is what he's been asking for this entire time. For Sweden to stop financing armed groups which are blowing up schools and hospitals in his country. The fact you'd "shutter" that armed groups blowing up hospitals and schools will lose some financing makes me question a lot of things about you as a person.

@scruffy7760 It demands huge changes for Sweden. For instance Sweden's financing of armed groups which are blowing up schools and hospitals in a Nato country will have to stop after this deal. I guess you haven't read the deal?

@Angelo Dimeo, I'm a Trump supporter and I don't find the letter hysterical. I find it rather embarrassing, especially knowing how it turned out. Erdogan ignored him and nothing Trump said would happen happened. The fact the Biden administration released this letter (for obvious reasons) is just as if not more embarrassing. Boy, what a time to be an American.

@Don S, not going to happen.

As soon as I saw that Netflix had a movie called "he's expecting." I immediately sold all my shares.

@Jeremy, I'm no fan of Biden nor did I vote for him. But no rational person can really say this wasn't the right move here. The French have no one to blame but themselves. They promised the subs at 30 billion and built in a specific time frame. They then jacked it up to 90 billion and said it will be delayed by 4 fold. Aussie needs these subs and asked America for them and America stepped in. We do a lot of really ridiculous stuff on the international front, like arming terror groups we shouldn't be arming. But this isn't one of those ridiculous situations.

@GTAmir613. Yes great at trying to stop people from speaking up against genocide. Real great man. The Nazis are obvious still around under a new banner.

@Big Earl, For Sweden to stop financing armed groups which are blowing up schools and hospitals in Turkey.

@Lawrence Sullivan, if we start arming and funding terrorists that are blowing up buildings in Andorra. I'd imagine the Andorrans will have a harsh reaction as well.
1
@MD If you'd been paying attention there was no sum. Turkey's main issue was Sweden financing armed groups which are blowing up schools and hospitals in their country. Sweden promised to stop, done deal.

@Auburn Jewels2, I'd imagine you're laughing due to those nation's lack of military prowess. However the strategic value of their geography does more for Nato than their weapons ever could.

@Terry, I'm not sure if asking a nation to stop financing armed groups which are blowing up schools and hospitals in your country is an "enhancement." lol

@jesusofnazareth3507 Either that or you could say no one wants to ally with Russia.

@Katie Stans, What do you expect from these fake news networks?
1
@zjeee "They did not get a lot from Sweden and Finland" From Finland yes but they literally got everything they were asking for from Sweden. Cutting off financing to an organization constantly blowing things up in your country is beyond "a lot" from their point of view. It would be akin to us cutting off financing to Al Qaeda in the early 2000s.

@dontbestupid6664 Is that why they were the only ones supply Ukraine with high end military gear early in the war when no one else would?

@rrt4511 Yea it's always all fun and games until thousands of people start dying. I remember Hillary finding it hilarious when they invaded Libya and killed their leader. Now that nation has descended into chaos with millions having their lives destroyed. Yea, it's simply hilarious.
1
@rrt4511 Yes that's one of the major reasons I was a big Trump supporter. The fact he didn't invade random nations when it wasn't in the interests of the average American. I'm still not sure what that has to do with the ridiculous letter he wrote the head of another state. Are you one of those all or nothing people. Either a person is perfect and can do no wrong or a person is terrible and everything they do is wrong? If so, it must be rough going through life with that sort of mindset.
1
@rrt4511 The difference being I don't laugh when hundreds and thousands of people die due to the actions of said government. I'm glad you're amused when such things happen.

They were basically selling the Aussies junk at insane prices.

@dons106 Not my house but I'd bet a lot bro.

@dons106 👍 Yup we'll see how it plays out.

I guess CNBC respects people's made up pronounces more so than a person or countries name.
1
@Singular Space. You might want to pay attention. Biden was kept away from these negotiations out of fear that his presence was more likely to end in the talks breaking down. This deal was struck without Biden in the process. Biden has burned a bridge in one side of this negotiating table so bad that a mere sight of him would derailed the entire thing.
1
What they got? Sweden's promise to stop financing terror groups.
1
@9753flyer Are you kidding? They didn't even try to deny it lol They had something like 360 million dollars earmarked in their yearly budget which went to armed groups in Syria which were blowing up hospitals and schools.
1
@9753flyer Yes but those armed groups Sweden is financing aren't blowing up hospitals in Syria or against the Syrian government. They're actually allied with the Syrian government. They're crossing the boarder and blowing things up in Turkey, which happens to be a Nato member. There goes your irrational defense of what Sweden is doing. Imaging trying to join a collective defense organization while at the same time financing groups which blow up hospitals in a member of said organization. Awkward? Yes.
1
@9753flyer You sound a tad bit crazy no? Fact of the matter is Sweden in financing armed groups which are blowing up schools and hospitals. I get it, you're on the side of people who are blowing up these schools and hospitals. At least you should be like Sweden and don't actually try to hide the fact you support old people and children being blown up. But even if you don't try to own up to it, it's fairly obvious what you support.
1
@9753flyer Armed groups who blow up hospitals and schools don't become anti terrorists just because you like them. Nations which are having their schools and hospitals blown up don't 'become terrorists because you dislike them. I get that you're emotionally triggered over these things but you're not going to convince anyone of this. So yea, if you say crazy things people will call you crazy. You shouldn't be so surprised.

@HO, it's not by law, it's simply common courtesy to call a country by the name it wants to be called. I guess the Nato secretary has common courtesy and CNBC does not. Which is odd because CNBC is all about preferred pronouns. So calling a man who thinks he is a woman, a woman is good. But calling a group of people by their real name is bad? Confusing stuff. Imagine your name was Tom and I simply insisted on calling you Dom. It's what CNBC would call a micro aggression no, except this time it's done to nearly 80 million people at once. 🤣
1
@HO-uv7eb At some point it's a habit because I call it Turkey as well all the time. But you're right, an individual or groups of individuals should be called what they want to be called. I wouldn't like it if someone calling me dilliom just because they want to.
1
@matrix91234 It is official, Turkiye is their name according to them.
1
So you have an issue with calling someone by the name they wish to be called by? Confusing.
1
@tomservo5007 If the Germans had a problem with it and asked me to call them Deutschland, I'd simply do it. If people continued to call them Germany. I wouldn't make an odd post about how that makes me happy. That is just straight up weird bro lol

@R4ym1n, Money wasn't the problem in this drama. The issue was mostly about Sweden trying to join Nato while at the same time financing armed groups which are blowing up schools and hospitals in a Nato country. Sweden promised to stop and now they're allowed to join. The only place money goes into play is how much less money terrorist organizations are going to be able to raise for their attacks.
1
@r4ym1n13 Not when it comes to emotional topics like buildings being blown up. Nations have interests and sometimes they chase those interests. Not to mention in some countries leaders are under intense pressure on certain issues from their population. If Erdogan simply let Sweden into Nato for something as ridiculous as money, he would surely be losing the next election. The people in that country have been hot skipping mad about Sweden financing grows which are blowing things up in their country. A simple matter of money isn't going to resolve something like this.
