Turkey do get quite some heavy diaspora voting help from atleast the following:
Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Austria, UK, Georgia, Bulgaria, Macedonia.
The whole issue with the diaspora voting is that it's biased and directed. While native Germans spread their votes around, the Turkish diaspora just vote for Turkey and direct all their votes for one entry only. Of course it's not just Turkish diaspora, but since we're on the subject of Turkey and the whole drama with TRT that's why I discussed it.
As for the ex-USSR bloc it's mostly Russian, Ukrainian, Armenian, Azeri and Georgian diaspora impacting. People often get fooled that for instance Estonians or Latvians heavily support Russia, while in fact it's Russians living in those countries voting. I mean if people really think Estonia or Latvia are 'friends' of Russia then they have little knowledge...
Actually you're right about one thing though, the Scandinavian bloc is more a 'real' type of 'friendly bloc' because the voting has little to do with diaspora like in the ex-USSR case. The only exception is Finland with its Finno-Swedes that can be compared to the Russians living in the ex-USSR countries or Serbs living in Bosnia (Republika Srbska) for instance.
Look, I'm not making up this to be a smartass or anything, I'm just saying that TRT's complained are uncalled for that's all. I mean if the results would have hurt alot with juries on-board I'd might get TRT's complaints to some point, but the results are still good!
