A Limerick A Day

Turkey will be known as Türkiye at the United Nations from now on, after it agreed to a formal request from Ankara

Well this news is shocking to see
They’re renaming the land of Turkey
As it’s too like the bird
Which seems quite absurd
It was never a problem for me

        They will not because in the next few weeks they will of achieved their objectives
        Lavrov was aske by the french press regarding annexing the captured areas
        He replied they will not
        They will let the people living there decide their own future
        So get ready for those breakaway states under Russian protection
        It actually makes sense that Putin dose not want a long protracted war
        He just wants the whole industrialised east of Ukraine under administration of a pro Russian regime
        Just like little mini Belarusian satellite states

      In the same was as we generally don’t call Germany Deutschland, I’m sure this will still be Turkey for most.

        and how most people in The Netherlands don’t really mind people referring to their country as Holland despite Holland only being two parts of the country (Noord and Zuid Holland). They will correct you if they think you’re being rude though :)
