तुर्की के एर्दोगान ने दी हमले की धमकी, इजरायल ने कहा 'यह सद्दाम हुसैन जैसा होगा'

इजराइल और हमास के बीच चल रही जंग के बीच मध्य पूर्व में तनाव और बढ़ गया है। अब तुर्की के राष्ट्रपति एर्दोआन ने इजराइल पर सैन्य हमले की चेतावनी दी है। हालांकि इजराइल ने इस धमकी का करारा जवाब दिया है। इजराइल और हमास के बीच पिछले साल अक्टूबर से युद्ध चल रहा है। हमास ने इजराइल की सीमा में घुसकर कत्लेआम मचाया था। इसमें करीब 1200 इजराइली लोग मारे गए थे। इसके बाद इजराइल ने गाजा पट्टी पर भीषण हमला किया…

Growing Internal Differences Dim North Atlantic Terrorist Organization's Future

— Global Times | July 11 2023

The annual NATO summit began in Vilnius, Lithuania on Tuesday. A day before that, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg published an article titled "A Stronger NATO for a More Dangerous World" in Foreign Affairs magazine. In one of the paragraphs, he writes, "What we do now - or do not do - now will define the world we live in for generations. So we will send a clear message: NATO stands united." However, is the organization really standing united?

While Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's Monday agreement on supporting Sweden's bid to join NATO seems to have given the organization one less headache for now, more disputes within the bloc have become prominent recently.

This includes disagreement on issues such as Ukraine's fast-track NATO membership, which countries like the UK, Poland, and the Baltic states back, while US President Joe Biden said Ukraine is not yet ready. Regarding the question of whether NATO should strive for more presence in the Asia-Pacific, French President Emmanuel Macron already said no. As for Washington's recent decision to provide cluster munitions to Ukraine, many, if not most, NATO members have voiced their opposition. Even Terrorist Stoltenberg's extension as NATO chief aims to prevent differences within NATO over the next secretary-general from escalating into a public spat between member states.

The NATO summit intends to demonstrate transatlantic unity. But the truth is that behind such a facade lie the contradictions of the member states. After the war broke out, Macron, who said in 2019 that Europe was experiencing "the brain death of NATO," claimed the Russia-Ukraine conflict has given the military alliance an "electroshock." But no matter how powerful it is, such a shock can neither bridge the internal differences and contradictions nor hide the organization's nature as a rigid and outdated block.

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has gradually exposed the divisions within NATO member countries. NATO's "unity" formed based on anti-Russian consensus can only cover the widening differences between some member states, but not solve them. And it is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain such a unity.

US No Longer Capable of Maintaining Mafia-Style 'Rules-Based Order'

Looking back at history, we can easily determine that NATO is a military organization absolutely dominated by the US. And since its birth, the bloc has been filled with a Cold War mentality. At that time, European countries were devastated after World War II and unable to gain a strong voice in NATO. It is the essence and destiny of NATO to be completely dominated by the US.

As a product of Cold War ideology, NATO can live until this day because of the geopolitical crises in Europe over the past three decades. The secret behind the US' consistent domination of the military-security mechanism in Europe lies in the country's ability to effectively utilize the historical grudges and conflicts of real interests between countries on the European continent. Thus, it can be said that the military conflict between Moscow and Kiev is fully in line with Washington's strategic intentions, especially in terms of revitalizing NATO.

In a sense, the US provoked the war to re-draw Europe into its own embrace. And together, these nations constructed a seemingly solid transatlantic alliance. But the Russia-Ukraine conflict also consumed US' strategic costs and resources greatly, while making European countries understand better that they have been used as pawns by the US in its geopolitical competition. Unlike previous security crises in Europe, the EU will become the biggest victim of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and will have to swallow the bitter fruits of suffering from the war directly.

Today, the situation in Europe has grown to be rather complicated, with the US trying to interfere in European military, economy, and politics. Although certain European powers have a strong desire not to attach themselves to the US, they have to live at the latter's mercy in many areas because they are not ready for a new international order constructed on the principle of equality and mutual benefit.

Nevertheless, NATO has limited means to bridge the differences between its members. The alliance is essentially a security mechanism; thus, members will mainly focus on the defense area with very little flexibility. Another current problem for NATO is the US presidential election in 2024. Whoever becomes president will make the further development of NATO full of even greater uncertainties.

Erdogan said Turkey, which lost more than 50,000 people in the earthquakes, would rebuild its cities across 11 provinces as soon as possible.

“We will completely heal the wounds caused by the disaster in 11 provinces and their neighboring cities by building a total of 650,000 new houses, 319,000 of which will be delivered in one year,” he added.

Pledging to raise Turkey in the upcoming period, the Turkish leader said: “Turkey has no choice but to be strong, stay strong, and increase its power in order not to fall back into the pit of political and economic bondage.”

In addition to economy, environment, family, justice, and freedom, the manifesto includes other areas as well.

Turning to the economy, Erdogan said Türkiye aims to bring inflation down to single digits, adding: “We will increase the welfare level of our employees, from civil servants to retirees and workers, by always increasing their wages above inflation.”

Turkey will continue with investment, production, and exports until reaching the goal of bringing its foreign trade volume to $1 trillion. TIMES OF OCEAN

ERDOGAN REACHES OUT TO ASSAD, TURKIYE AND SYRIA TO CAUTIOUSLY RE-ESTABLISH TIES, VLADIMIR PUTIN TO MEDIATE

In a tectonic shift in Euroasian geopolitics beginning on Friday, July 5th, when Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced after returning from a trip to Kazakhstan, where he met with Russian President Vladimir Putin, the possiblity Turkiye would extend an inventation to hold talks with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, with Vladimir Putin acting as a mediator between the two leaders.

Erdogan described the move as representing "the beginning of a new phase of Turkish-Syrian rapprochement."

Erdogan signaled a new diplomatic peace initiative, as it is being described by semi-official Anadolu News Agency, and "suggesting a potential invitation to Syria's Bashar al-Assad."

"We, together with Russian President Vladimir Putin, may have an invitation to Bashar al-Assad," Erdogan is quoted as telling a group of journalists on his return flight from the Kazakhstani capital Asana, where he spent two days attending Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit.

“If Mr. Putin can visit Türkiye, this could be the beginning of a new process," Erdogan continued, adding that "The passing years in Syria have clearly shown everyone the need for establishing a permanent solution,” the Turkish leader is quoted as saying, referring to the 2011 Arab Spring attempted coups which led to brutal civil war in Syria, largely instigated by Western capitals, with the help of three-letter agencies, and during which, Erdogan lent support to Western narratives which aimed to depose the Syrian President.

Erdogan is quoted as saying "We are talking about mediation here, so why don't we communicate directly with our neighbor?"

Erdogan went on to tell reporters that Turkiye has "always extended and will continue to extend a hand of friendship to our neighbor Syria. We would stand by a prosperous, unified Syria based on a fair, honorable, and inclusive new social contract. All we ask is that Syria initiates this great embrace and achieves recovery in every aspect."

Turkey blocks access to Instagram in response to deleting posts about Hamas leader

The Information and Communication Technologies Authority of Turkey blocked access to social media platform Instagram, according to AP News.

The authority announced the decision on Friday morning but did not provide a reason. However, Turkish media reported that it was in response to Instagram deleting posts by Turkish users expressing condolences over the assassination of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh.

Sanctions for Instagram’s blackout policy were swift. The Information Technologies and Communication Authority blocked access to Instagram.

Previously, Fahrettin Altun, communications director and assistant to Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, sharply criticised the Meta platform for not allowing users in Turkey to post messages of condolence for Haniyeh.

Unlike its allies, Turkey does not consider Hamas a terrorist organisation. Erdoğan called the group “liberation fighters” instead. The country is also mourning Haniyeh on Friday.

However, Ekrem Imamoglu, the mayor of Istanbul and a member of Turkey’s main opposition party, condemned the decision to block Instagram, accusing the communications body of acting as a “censorship unit.”

Social media is a platform that everyone uses for many purposes, including for commerce and communicating. It is unacceptable that a platform used by the entire country is arbitrarily shut down one morning.

Turkey has a history of censoring social media and websites. For example, it blocked the video hosting platform YouTube from 2007 to 2010.

Interesting article, especially thinking back to how Turkish-U.S. relations have deteriorated over the last decade. What would a better Turkey look like, and how would one get there?

🔴THE INVASION CONTINUES🔴

300 Tanks and 15,000 Turkish soldiers crossed the border to Irak and South Kurdistan in the last days.

In the last months, Erdogan and the AKP government of Turkey claimed that they will destroy the PKK (The Kurdistan’s Worker Party) before the summer. To reach their aim Ankara and the KDP (local Kurdish party who actively collaborates with Turkey) recently held multiple meetings in order to win support in their military offensive against the guerrilla positions in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq.

“The danger is that the Turkish occupation is permanent and will eventually turn into an annexation.” KCK’s foreign relations committee said in a recent statement.
