Admirals.


This is coolbert:

Once more the Sultan in Angora is up to funny stuff? Funny in a bad way? Funny?

First the high command of the  Air Force was obliterated in one fell swoop. Now the Navy? Admirals as retired but now detained.

"Turkey detains admirals who criticised giant Istanbul canal"

"Turkey has detained 10 retired admirals after they openly criticized a huge Istanbul canal project championed by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan."

"Those held were among 104 retired admirals who signed an open letter warning against withdrawal from an international treaty governing use of the strategic Bosphorus Strait."

The proposed Istanbul canal as opposed by a hundred or so RETIRED admirals of the Turkish navy. Some of those protesting admirals now DETAINED.

THAT ISTANBUL CAN AS PROPOSED AN INITIATIE TO BYPASS THE BOSPHORUS. PROVISIONS OF THE MONTREUX CONVENTION AS A CONSEQUENCE WILL BE RENDERED NULL AND VOID?  RESTRICTIONS ON WARSHIPS MOVING TO AND FRO THE BLACK SEA AND MEDITERRANEAN THROUGH THE NARROW BOSPHORUS ELIMINATED?
