"Turning around Turkish opinion
The Monitor's View
Give someone the cold shoulder long enough, and the message sinks in. That appears to be happening with NATO member Turkey. Sensing disregard from the West, the Turks themselves are losing interest. That's a trend that must be reversed.

A recoiling Turkey might not look to be the case based on recent government action. Last week, the parliament in Ankara approved sending up to 1,000 troops to Lebanon to take part in the United Nations peacekeeping force there. That's a substantial contribution and one that was warmly welcomed by European countries as well as the US."
