A quick reminder that aa is basically Erdogan’s personal propaganda channel. I’m not saying anything against this specific article. Just a reminder for the future.
I had posted this elsewhere but feel it is relevant to your comment. It describes Erdogan’s position towards the conflict, and could provide some context to your reminder. Worth the read.

Thanks for pointing this out!
This article is terrible too though. The entire article is a tweet clarifying that the judgment doesn’t represent the official government position and then… random, unnamed Twitter users talking shit. The subheading is a quote from “social media user” (a well-known authority on such matters!). I can’t find the original comment. They don’t link to any of these comments. I wonder why!
The second quote, attributed to “one Kenyan user” (though it’s just a pro-Palestinain/anti-Israeli account), is a post with 150 views and 10 likes. The final quote, by “another”, is from a post that has 25 views and zero likes. They’ve really got their finger on the pulse!
They’re just finding randos to feed you the story Erdogan wants to tell you. Tellingly, Pakistani and Iranian propaganda channels are also quoting these nobodies too.
chad move
! chad uganda !<
Chad is actually a separate country northwest of Uganda. Don’t think they’re involved.
Well there’s a difference in being chad and named chad isn’t it?

The chaddest place on Earth, where everyone is a chad even the women.
Unless the judge is the heir to the government, the word the headline should’ve used is “disavowed.” I understand English probably isn’t the journalist’s native language, but c’mon, if writing is your job you need to get it right.
