Notable X post regarding Turkish-Chinese interactions I have not heard this story before, it is quite interesting historically, China and Turkey had no animosity or enmity towards each other, the last time they were involved in a conflict was during the Korean War at that time Turkey sent a force of 21,000 troops to the Korean Peninsula to demonstrate its loyalty to the United States and express its pro-American and anti-Soviet stance, while seeks to protect itself and prevent its absorption in the Soviet Union. However, the Turkish army made some serious and comical mistakes during the Korean War, which frustrated the American army during the "Battle of Wawon" on November 26, 1950, Turkish forces, due to lack of language skills and inability to distinguish between Chinese and Koreans, mistakenly attacked the retreating South Korean army in Wawon and destroyed them. When the Turkish army reported its victory to the American army, the Americans were shocked because the forces Turkey defeated were not Chinese volunteers, but fleeing Korean soldiers. Shortly after this debacle, the Turkish army officially engaged Chinese volunteer forces in the Battle of Gari-ryong. On the first night of the battle, the temperature dropped to a freezing 30 degrees Celsius, the Turkish army, in a surprising move, lit a fire in the darkness and snow to keep warm. Lighting a fire at night exposed the position of the Turkish army, Chinese volunteer forces followed the smoke and fire and launched a surprise attack on the Turkish army.
