It might be a skunk, my mom who has never smoked always complains how a skunk is passing by our house. There is no skunk, our building doesn't let you smoke inside so our neighbor smokes their weed in front of their door and it blows to our balcony which we keep the door open to.

I never said racism doesn't exist. I just stated how when you become a high level politician you're more likely to be jailed, hence why Demirtas being arrested for speaking Kurdish is probably not the case. You're free to speak Kurdish, that doesn't mean a psycho won't do something wild.

If speaking Kurdish was against the Law then state sponsered TRT Kurdi is just full of criminals ( I don't really think that I'm just pointing out the irony)

I think this is where the exception comes in i.e politics. Even nationalist Turks question why he is in jail because there really never was a trial (I think), as we see the same thing is happening to Imamoglu right now. Once you get enough traction to make appropriate noise you become targeted by the state.

But I don't think he was arrested for speaking Kurdish, if that was the case at least 5 of my friends are running from the law right now.

I'm not arguing about the situation between Turkey and the Kurds in Syria, I'm only talking about Turkish-Russian situation.

Turkey is a huge counter against Russia in the Middle east. It actively fights Russian interests in the Middle east, and Libya. There are instances of Turkish troops being killed by Russians and Turkish military shooting down Russian Jets and more. You can't deny the importance of Turkey against Russia.
