I'm an EU citizen we obviously have a different viewpoint on this but the link you sent to me shows precisely all bark in my opinion.
Holding off on a few weapons exports here and there is meaningless.
> People keep saying that
If it's the general concensus there may be some reason for that. I'm sure Belarus wouldnt try this with a US plane.
> Turkey doesn't have to "watch", they also received sanctions after the drilling standoff two years ago.
If the reaction to hijacking an EU plane flying from one EU nation to another is indeed just some export/import sanctions, then yes I do think Turkey will find that interesting.

- Iv 5y agoWell, read the link again: the sanctions include a list of names, whose assets are frozen, who can't travel in EU and companies that have the same fate. Economic sanctions are the most effective non-military actions states can take against each others. Short of military invasion what do you suggest EU does?
