Erdogan, family’ alleged to be involved in illegal oil trade with ISIS

Russia’s defence ministry on Wednesday accused Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his family of involvement in illegal oil trade with Islamic State jihadists, as a dispute rages over Ankara’s downing of one of Moscow’s warplanes.

“The main consumer of this oil stolen from its legitimate owners Syria and Iraq is Turkey. According to available information, the highest level of the political leadership of the country, President Erdogan and his family, are involved in this criminal business,” deputy defence minister Anatoly Antonov told journalists.

I just hope they can come up with the evidence to back up this claim.

The BBC has picked up this story:

I'd be delighted if this nailed the crooked Erdoğan family alone, but if other crooks are also hurt then so be it.

It must be very hard trying to align yourself with the Anglo-Turko “ideals” with such a tangled pair of knickers…

Well the last few lines from the BBC state

Russia said it was producing only "part of the evidence" for now and did not provide direct proof of their claim that Mr Erdogan and family were involved.

Hopefully more to come! Not sure why they dont publish all now. The problem is Russia has lost credibilty with evidence. If you recall they produced fake evidence re the malaysian flight and even went into denial despite overwelming evidence re the Sinai flight.

I am sure other states have more credible proof. But for it to mean somthing they need actual evidence, showing the links.

Garbage.

I think the Gulenists know everything that goes in Turkey - they seem to have every important office in the country bugged. I tend to think they are allied with the CIA. However, they've gone astonishingly quiet since the last rigged elections.

Well its as you say western interests like gas from the Kurdish state - Europe wants cheap energy , they do not want reliance on Russia
