PROPHECY WATCH: Are Russia and Turkey moving closer to a military alliance that was foretold in biblical prophecy? Turkey has announced that Russia will conduct live-fire military exercises in the eastern Mediterranean Sea starting next week. The drills come as Greece and Turkey - both NATO members - inch closer to military conflict over territorial oil and gas rights in the Aegean Sea.
The Russian military exercises are expected to take place in waters where Turkish research vessels are prospecting. The area in question is claimed by both Greece and Cyprus. NATO officials have tried to arrange negotiations between both sides, but Greece insists it will not sit down for talks until Turkey withdraws its vessels from Greek territorial waters. It's not just the Russian regime that Turkey seems to be shifting toward. It's taken other steps away from the US and toward a more extreme brand of Islam.
Messianic Jew and prophetic expert Joel Rosenberg recently told CBN News that Turkey's tyrannical leader Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is moving his country away from its alliance with western powers and moving it toward radical Islamic countries like Iran. "Erdogan is taking his country out of the western moderate camp, into the Iranian, Islamism more radical camp. And that's a long term very serious problem," he said. Rosenberg also believes the recent Israel/United Arab Emirates "Abraham Accord" has prophetic undertones. -Full Report
