Turkish President Tayyip Erdoğan announced on Saturday that he has called on his foreign minister to banish 10 ambassadors from Western countries, including the United States, after they called for the “urgent release” of a Turkish philanthropist, Reuters reported.
"I gave the necessary order to our foreign minister and said what must be done: These 10 ambassadors must be declared persona non grata at once. You will sort it out immediately," Erdoğan said during a speech on Saturday, referring to a phrase that means that a person is unwelcome, according to the news outlet.

If Trump didn't have enough sense to pull them out (I'm hoping they did secretly) four years ago, I think it is safe to assume that The Erdoğan Caliphate will soon be the world's #8 nuclear power..
You know 0bama wants it, and I can't imagine Joe ordering Austin and Milley to pull them out, even if he is capable of grasping the situation.

Little ineffectual weakling Anthony Blinken has shown his and Biden's weakness in Afghanistan; now they're learning how weakness and retreat brings threats and worse. Unlike Teddy Roosevelt, Blinken walks softly and carries a limp noodle.

Whatever the hell TURKEY has to do with the USA is beyond me. Stuff their ambassador and pull the foreign aid bazillions they are banking. I couldn't care less what happens in Turkey except on Turkey day.

I hope that we aren’t sending billions to one of the biggest ****holes on the planet but I will bet that we are. Biden will probably promise them extra if they let our ambassador back in.

Before ya jump too ugly about how "This Man" is being treated...pay attention to who pulls his strings, and many of the strings in the Countries that got the boot for trying to spring him. Soros tried to overthrow Turkey, founded and funded a "Real" Coup. Just as he funded the steal of the Election here. His puppet strings reach around the Globe.
"Kavala was a founding member of the Open Society Foundation in Turkey, an international grantmaking network created by the American-Hungarian billionaire George Soros."

I lived there as a teen for a couple years and found it to be very uncomfortable. The food was great and the girls beautiful, but always there was a feeling of being right on the edge of violence. It was a good idea to have a few officials you could get American jeans or booze for. As long as you could/would do something for them, you were ok. We even had a couple undercover Turkish cops that followed us around to keep us out of trouble. The rumor was always there, but we only saw them once. A bunch of local teens decided to beat up the American kids and these guys showed up out of nowhere, chased off the group with just a few words and then disappeared again.
We left via ship and went to Italy. It was like leaving Hell and ending up in Heaven.

Erdogan/Turkey wants to be the leader of the ISLAMOFACISTS worldwide. If you are looking for the 7th and 8th beast named in Revelation, then look at Turkey to be the leader of the troops in the Last Days going against Israel (and the allies of Israel). Think GOG-MAGOG. If we leave nukes in Turkey, then we are arming the 8th beast. Have FAITH. God has more ammo than the entire world and better aim.

Our enemies smell weakness and Biden could not be wafting that scent any stronger if he had a giant atomizer spritzing the entire globe. We are in deep kimchi with this feeble minded fool at the helm. We know it, our enemies know it and they know we know it and will do nothing about it. It is going to be a very dark and dangerous three years and two plus months. God help us to survive this disastrous and illegitimate administration.

He needs to replace his aging F-16s with new F-16s.

If our ambassador is asked to leave, all US financial and military aid should go along with them.

Maybe our interest in Turkey should be better focused on the sales festivities normally held on Thanksgiving weekend. Moreover, since the Xiden/Fauci cabal has cancelled Christmas, buy a few more X-boxes and refrigerators. Look for the union label, ''fabriqué en Chine.''

Our presence and our nukes should have been withdrawn a long time ago. Turkey was our necessary NATO ally to protect against the Soviet southern flank. The Red Army had its second largest base in its system in Georgia and a sizable Red Air Force presence also. Turkey's NATO membership hasn't been needed since the late 90s. The western nations should have left anyway. Good riddance Erdogan.

Obama is at it again...making a Middle East country powerful beyond belief...he's determined to put mussies in charge of the world and is rapidly arming the middle eastern countries...if WE look at his overall movement of arms ...he is planning an attack on Israel...I'm convinced...he hates Israel and is determined to bring her to her knees...and Mr. Magoo is in the basement attached to needles that give him walking around ability...he's so jacked up on steroids that he can't function without them...hence the phony backdrop of the rose garden and styrofoam columns..until newsman figured it out...now WE are on to them...all important decisions for the country is being conducted by obama/soros while Mr. Magoo is kept in the basement till another outing by CNN...

Our ally, Turkey. Ridiculous. But don't worry, we've got Blinken, Winkin' and Nod on the case. What could go wrong?
