from What Just Happened? · host Sibylline Ltd

They discuss Turkey’s cooling relationship with Russia, its enduring value to NATO, the limits of any rapprochement, and why concerns over democratic backsliding are being outweighed by harder strategic calculations.   Join the Sibylline Podcast mailing list: https://mailchi.mp/sibylline.co.uk/podcastsignup If you enjoyed this episode, let us know by liking, subscribing or leaving a review.
