@furbpilot Perfect for Erdogan and the AKP.
What options should Europe reconsider? The relationships with Europe and esp. the EU are struggling since years. I do not expect that their will be any improvement over the next years.
The US policy will not change a lot. Turkey is now a partner in the war against IS. And with Russian troops on their way to Syrian the US will work close with the Turkish Army.
3.85 sounds a little bit to high for the USD, but who knows. That would be a real issue and create a real Exodus of THY pilots.
