Ignatius: Turkish attack appears coordinated with the Russians

Link to tweet

..I'm also told that Turkish attack appears coordinated with the Russians. Russian-backed forces are mobilizing to invade the Kurdish area from the south — towards Tabqa and other spots. Meanwhile, ISIS is mobilizing sleeper cells in Raqqa and attacks have taken place tonight.

Is there any doubt who Donnie works for?

Soon there’ll be Russian air bases in Turkey and no American access. Goodbye, NATO

NATO was created to oppose Soviet/Russian expansionism. You can't be a Russian ally AND a NATO ally at the same time. NATO needs to call Erdogan on the carpet.
