Kimse Yok Mu aid for Pakistan

Chief Minister of Punjab province of Pakistan, Shahbaz Sharif: “I pray that relations between Turkey and Pakistan benefit both countries.”

This is utterly disgraceful

An old and experienced colleague, like some other columnist, has been writing odd articles for some time. I can hardly believe it. For instance, in an interview he gave to a Russian media outlet, he likens Mr. Fethullah Gülen to George Soros. To say that he does not know what he said would be an insult to his famous intellect. To say that he knows what he says would be to say that he is ill-intentioned. But I cannot believe that he, an experienced colleague, can have ulterior motives. As we try to save him by saying, "He must have said it erroneously," he publishes a statement in his column, but it does not explain anything. It fails to explain a bad analogy that may amount to a catastrophic character assassination and might put innocent people in an unfavorable position.
