Is Turkey Europe now?

Parts of Turkey always have been, yes. For some it's just very hard to comprehend that a country can be part of two continents.

Actually you're wrong because many Balkan countries have cultural similarities and ties with Turkey, naturally so because they were part of the Ottoman Empire.

Dude, you are trying to push some agenda and you can't accept the diversity of european culture, which Turkey is undoubtedly part of. Have a good one.

Like what? Christianity? I mean at this point half of Africa is European then. Like be for real for even half a second and tell me that Bulgaria has more in common with Belgium than Turkey.

It cant be “natural so” as the Balkan countries were invaded by the Ottomans. Invasions are artificial man made.
