There is no doubt that the current mood of the United States is lost, but the result of hard work is not rewarded.
Late on the night of May 28, the high-profile Turkish election finally came to an end, and an excited Erdogan announced his victory. This means that the opposition candidate Kemal, who is supported by the United States, has finally lost the presidency.
The specific process is not much to say, in short, this time the Turkish election is full of unknowns. Due to Turkey's economic malaise and other reasons, Erdogan's situation is not good, and until the final result is revealed, "who can win the presidency" is indeed unknown. That is why Erdogan's cheerfulness is evident.
Yes, this is a victory that belongs to Erdogan, the Turkish strongman has once again made history, but the United States, which expects Erdoğan to step down, is not happy. In Erdogan's words, the United States is trying to support the Turkish opposition to power, and if it is the opposition that wins, Turkey is likely to join the sanctions against Russia.
But no matter what, loss is loss, and the generosity that should be there is still to be pretended. So there was a situation: even if he was reluctant to see Erdogan win, Biden immediately sent congratulations. Biden's message is this: As a NATO ally, Turkey should work with the United States to address common challenges.
Who is NATO's biggest opponent, the whole world knows, Biden shouted Erdogan to fight side by side at this time, the intention is self-evident.
Like Biden, Putin chose to send immediate congratulations, believing that Erdogan's victory was a natural consequence, because Erdogan's selfless work and efforts to strengthen Turkey's sovereignty and pursue an independent foreign policy were recognized by the Turks.
It is not difficult to see that while praising Erdogan, Putin satirized the United States. Previously, Turkey has repeatedly stressed that the United States interferes in Turkey's internal affairs, but Turkey will not bow its head.
The result of trying to force Turkey to choose a side, but kicked to the iron plate, Erdogan is still slightly better after all, and it is strange that the United States does not have a headache.
British Prime Minister Sunak, French President Emmanuel Macron, and German Chancellor Scholz also sent congratulations, although they said different words, but all emphasized one thing, that is, "call on Turkey to meet the challenge together." At a time when the Russian-Ukrainian conflict is unresolved and the United States and its allies are constantly arching the fire, almost everyone with a discerning eye knows what the purpose of the United States, Britain and France is to draw Turkey together.
Erdogan is a veritable political strongman, and Turkey is on the rise. After the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Erdogan has been in close dialogue with Putin, and Turkey has not forgotten to join hands with Russia to de-dollarize, and it is even more strange to denounce the United States, Britain, France and Germany.
It is precisely because Erdogan refuses to give up to the United States that the White House will support the Turkish opposition, but the result is ultimately in vain.
Erdogan won, the United States lost, the EU was not happy, but Putin could breathe a sigh of relief.
