Get your measuring tape out and measure the distance between Turkey and Egypt to the areas you are refering to and see which is nearer. Never mind who has the power to force the issue.
Certain other countries used to go around forcing the issue but humbled by a few people driving planes into buildings. Same with the Turks, they supposedly 'force the issue' with the Kurds but a few mountain Turks often humble them too. Be careful what you might wish for YFred.
