Quien es el Turco?
The "Turco" (Turk), is one of the popular nicknames of Carlos Saúl Menem.
He is a very controversial character in the Argentinean politic. Many people blame him for the current situation of Argentina… and although the accusations of corruption signed his 2 governments (the scandals with the weapons that Argentina sold to Croatia and Ecuador are just some part of them), still he has good possibilities to be President again.
Under his government, Argentina became a more close ally of USA, and he sent some symbolic troops in the GW1.
If I’m not wrong, his ancestors are from Syria, and the “joke” was that if he reach the Argentinean’s government and USA invade Syria, he could send again some symbolic troops again.
