> but remember just a few years ago when Turkey shot down a Russian jet on the Syrian border and almost led to NATO involvement

It led to nothing, Turkey asked for Patriot missile systems (to protect from attacks from Syria, not Russia or Black Sea), which were hastily provided. Russia started cutting economical ties with Turkey, Erdoğan wrote a personal apology letter to Putin, and after that things got better.

Then https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_of_Andrei_Karlov happened, which is still a mystery in itself, and yet, nothing happened that's interesting NATO wise.
