    I expect Turkey will end up in BRICS in the end however.

    I’d like to believe that, but I don’t know enough to have an opinion on where they will land.

      My expectation is that the US will keep putting pressure on Turkey and they’re going to realize that either they bend the knee or they have to leave western orbit. The recent regime change attempt is likely what spurred Turkey to start considering BRICS as an alternative. It’s also worth noting that the economy in Turkey is not doing so hot, and BRICS has far more to offer than the west in that regard.
