Turkey Deploys Troops to Qatar

Only two days after Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain severed diplomatic relations with Qatar for its alleged support of "terrorist organisations", Turkey's parliament has ratified military deals allowing its troops to be deployed to a Turkish military base in Qatar. Turkish analysts talking to Al Jazeera interpreted the move as "an apparent show of support for Qatar". 

"This indeed suggests that Turkey sees its defence ties with Qatar as an indispensable pillar of its strategic posture in the region," Can Kasapoglu, a defence analyst from Turkey's EDAM, told Al Jazeera. "It also shows that Ankara would not drastically alter its long-term vision for regional fluctuations."

"The ratification of the military treaties is not an anti-Saudi move at all," Kasapoglu added. "Turkey still sticks to 'I don't want problems between my two good friends' policy.

"Yet, although this is not an anti-Saudi position, it is a pro-Qatari one for sure. Ankara prioritised its geopolitical perspective, and showed that it holds its military presence [in Qatar] above the recent diplomatic crisis."

The moves followed a speech by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey in which he criticized the countries that acted against Qatar, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Egypt and Yemen.

Recently, tons of Qatari Oil Money has been flowing into Turkish Economy, it seems like Turkey is willing to take some measures to not let Saudi-led group to capitulate Qatar. 

Discuss.

Don't quote me on this, but I am pretty sure none of these nations (rather not a single nation) *actually* care about terrorism and all their moves are economically/politically based.

There is no evidence of Qatar funding ISIS or whatsoever.

Just because American Media happens to love Saudi doesn't mean whatever is told is true.

Nope, on a positive note, this is likely to decrease the chance of Saudi declaring against Qatar.

Chances that a country like Qatar whose whole existence based on its natural resources have no power to influence such things. It is all framed because Egypt hates Muslim Brotherhood, so does Saudi, tadaaaa you have your excuse ISIS. It is just simple framing. 

It is just like the time Turkey shot down the Russian fighter jet, then Russian officials started crying about how Turkey helped ISIS, then Turkey and Russia fixed diplomatic ties, tadaaa whole bs excuse disappeared.
