Seeing that Ukraine is not the "enemy of the turn" of the Russian army at all, western countries have to increase their support for Ukraine and hold an attitude of not making a big deal out of it. Especially the European Union, after NATO refused to "send charcoal in the snow" to Ukraine several times in succession, the European Union stood up to give Ukraine a "talisman", and even some people proposed to "quickly absorb" Ukraine. Unexpectedly, when the EU countries mentioned such an idea, Turkey directly did not agree - why?
The Global Network reported on the 2nd that the Turkish government has been a bit "jealous" of the "rapid accession" application submitted by Ukraine and the "ambiguous attitude" of the European Union. The Turkish government shouted that now is a critical moment to test "fairness and justice" and that Turkey hopes to be treated fairly, at least on the same level as Ukraine, so as to ensure the "fairness" that the EU has always referred to, rather than politicizing the situation.
I have to say that the Turkish government is still quite dissatisfied with the fact that it has not joined the European Union for decades. Especially when the EU and Ukraine have "ambiguous attitudes", Turkey's heart is even less tasteful. The president said the EU did not appear to be "sincere enough" to do a good job, and Turkey was quite puzzled: If Turkey was attacked, would the EU treat it in particular?
From the speech of the Turkish president, we can also see the anger of Turkey. In fact, the main reason why Turkey is so unhappy is that the European Parliament has provided some support for Ukraine. The European Parliament said it had now passed a resolution that should first give Ukraine the status of a "candidate country" and then push for a quick accession.
At the same time, the Ukrainian side is also actively shouting, the country's president said that now has reached a critical moment, the facts have proved ukraine's "strength", but also shows that Ukraine and the West are standing together, and now it is time to need the Return of the West, the European Union, and even NATO should stand up and show their support for Ukraine with actions.
It is conceivable that watching the EU and Ukraine shout at each other, or even "engage in ambiguity", Turkey is of course somewhat dissatisfied. Turkey applied as early as when the EU was still called the "European Community". However, it was not until 8 years after the European Community changed its name to the European Union that Turkey was granted the status of "candidate country", but it has been unable to negotiate with the EU for various reasons.
Thinking of its own bumps in the road to joining the Union, and then thinking about Ukraine's current "rapidity" to be recognized, Turkey will of course feel unbalanced. So it's no surprise that the Turkish president has tied himself to Ukraine, which turkey wants to use ukraine's problems to speed up its entry into the EU, even if it puts pressure on the EU.
However, the EU's "ambiguity" with Ukraine at this time is actually not a good thing. The biggest possibility is that the EU will give Ukraine a certain "legal status", symbolically support Ukraine, and give Ukraine "motivation" to continue to fight with Russia. At this stage, it is basically impossible for Western countries to fight Russia to the end because of Ukraine.
That being said, the West will not relax its restrictions on Russia. In addition to the various sanctions previously introduced, Western countries will not give up continuing to lay out around Russia. As for Ukraine being just one of the Western pawns, they have bigger goals.
Like Finland and Sweden, the Western countries also want to pull these two countries into their own camp, completely forming a "defensive line" on the European continent that runs through the north and south, and completely limiting military conflicts to Russia's "doorstep". However, such an action will only cause Russia to fight back more strongly, as the Russian government said, any threat will be retaliated against.
