תוספת מעניינת לנושא היחסים הצבאיים בין טורקיה וסין
בתגובה להודעה מספר 1 שנכתבה על ידי ColMonty שמתחילה ב "התפתחות מעניינת שעשוייה להשפיע על היחסים הצבאיים בין סין וטורקיה"
המאמר הוא מאפריל ונוגע באותם יחסים עדינים ש "התפוצצו" תרתי משמע בשבוע שעבר.
נקודות מעניינות - אם סין לא תהיה בת ברית של טורקיה, במי הטורקים יבחרו כשהאיחוד מפנה להם את הגב?

The Chinese are also concerned about emerging manifestations (either real or virtual) of Pan-Turkism, a vision recently resuscitated not only in Beijing's perceptions but also by some Turkish military and political figures. Paradoxically, some of those who promote Pan-Turkism—including a number of Turkish generals—consider China a possible substitute to the United States and the European Union and urge increased collaboration with the East. They represent the so-called "Eurasianist" faction in the armed forces and proclaim ultra-rightists views as well as anti-Islamic attitudes. Erdoğan's religious government has forced some of them to retire [9]. While enjoying the support and backing of some politicians (among them ex-Maoists), it is nevertheless a marginal group. It seems highly unlikely that Turkey will turn to the PRC as a primary ally. Still, the Turkish "Eurasianists" presumably approve of, or are even instrumental in, forging defense collaboration with China.
Thus, General Hasan Aksay’s recent visit to China should be interpreted within the context of an already existing elaborate military and security cooperation. It is during this visit that China and Turkey agreed to intensify military cooperation that would enable joint military exercises and training and would underwrite defense industrial projects. Meeting his visitor, Deputy Chief of Staff of the PLA, Ge Zhenfeng hailed the smooth development of bilateral Sino-Turkish military relations and friendly exchanges and the "pragmatic cooperation" between the two militaries (PLA Daily, March 25).
