Why is Turkey still a NATO member?

Turkey has the potential to trigger NATO collective defense mechanisms, because it has engaged for many years in various military conflicts and pursues hegemonic goals. Some of Turkey's alliances are also questionable.

What about Syria, Iraq, and Iran? Then there is the long military conflict with Greece (hint: Cyprus).

Turkey refused NATO membership of Finland and Sweden!

As a minimum there ought to be something of a membership suspension or a serious review of its membership!

I have blogged about Turkey and its military adventures here before, please click on the Turkey tag below.
