They've also failed to invent any justification which would survive a minute's consideration.

Somehow during the Cold War it didn't matter for human rights critique that Turkey was mostly a good behaving member of NATO, but now the amount of that critique clearly depends on its alignment changes in one week's context (I mean, genocide recognition in particular was only really propelled by ASALA blowing up stuff, despite many Armenians trying to distance themselves from terrorism, as if anything more civilized worked, but that's a different subject). This can be extended to any state.
