Will there be a new Crimean War to save the Turk? Who will take the place of the British?
Terrorist attacks on Turkish soil wont stop until the countrys Prime Minister, Tayyip Erdogan, gives up on his support of rebel forces in Syria, British broadcaster, Neil Clark, told RT.
Turkish police have fired tear gas at protesters in a town near the Syrian border, which was the scene of a deadly double car bombing a week ago.
Demonstrators are angry over Ankara's support for the Syrian rebels, which they say is putting Turkey in the firing line.
World affairs journalist and broadcaster, Neil Clark, believes Erdogan must reconsider his policies and stop accusing the Syrian government of targeting the Hatay province, as it wouldve been an absolutely absurd move from Damascus.
RT: Tension and discontent on the Turkish-Syrian border is now escalating - what ramifications could this have?
Neil Clark: I think if I were Turkish I would be protesting too, because Mr Erdogan has made colossal blunder here because in August 2011 he took the line hes going to play a leading role in trying to topple the Syrian government. He allowed rebels to be based in the country. His government gave arms to them and equipment. And now its sort of a blowback time. We had some terrible bombings in Turkey this week and this will only continue, until Turkey changes course in relation to Syria.
