During the past few years turkey has seemed to be such a pain from the western point of view, that I'm not surprised eg. EU would want to avoid depending on them for shipping goods.

Others like saudis seem just as bad, if not worse from western perspective, but they might be the least worst option on the way from asia to europe.
