Turkey does not have the logistical capacity to project power. It's a regional land power.

@devalapar7878 I am former USAF on C-130s. Turkey has small ships like corvettes and frigates which means nothing when it comes to logistics. You need lots of aircraft to fly in everything an army needs, something Turkey and many other countries don't have. As for Libya the USN and USAF were conducting the entire war, without such help NATO countries would have not been able to do what they did. America spends 700bil+ on its military with 215bil going to the USAF alone. Turkey's underfunded $20bil a year military budget isn't projecting real strength overseas anywhere. See Russia for lessons in poor logistics as a reference.

@KRYPTOS_K5 Compared to who? Greece? The Turks as most nations do not project a blue water navy and do not possess global reach. Turkey is a threat to its local neighbors as most countries are. Very few countries can project power, this becomes very evident once a person serves in the US military for an enlistment or two and gets to see their "allies" most of which spend almost nothing in comparison to the United States. It's going to be interesting watching these countries in a post American world try to engage in conflicts just to end up like the Ukraine-Russia war where it devolves into a WW1 trench war due to pitiful logistics.

 @papasmurf9146 Of course it did, it had a dictator for decades and yet another Islamic terrorist country with zero Democracy. They will all fail, sit back and watch 😂

 @spointz8936 Yes, a lack of Democracy coupled with inbred citizens preaching Islamic terrorism has nothing to do with it 😂😂

 @davidbalcon8726 We have lots of inflation in the USA with a real effective rate around 40% on many products and services. Cleary you don't go out and shop.

 @johno3456 The Turks have zero logistical capability. Everyone thinks the US moving man and material globally is an easy feat 😂

 @Ultima-Signa Like Russia invading Ukraine? 😂😂😂

Not well, the place is divided, poor, socialist, and is now hated with punishments to come for supporting Russia. Modi is the dumbest Indian leader in decades.

@Torus2112 Hence those countries kept bugging Obama to lead strikes in Libya when there was a rebellion that seized the ports. My cousin was coming back to Virginia from a med cruise in 2011 and his carrier was redirected to Libya, a place Americans don't care about.

@CapAnson12345 Can't, they can't project power and any war they start they will be considered a war longer world wide.
