US Special Forces train militants PKK: The Washington Post

It would have escaped my attention if I had not followed the Twitter accounts of two terrorism experts. One from Türkiye, Nihat Ali Özcan of the think tank TEPAV, and the other from the US, Bruce Hoffman from Georgetown University. Both drew attention to the fact that The Washington Post, in the caption of the

Turkish opposition falling short of expectations

Türkiye’s six party opposition block held their 11th meeting on January 26, falling short of meeting high expectations with their joint declaration. The opposition cooperation that is often called the “Table of Six” has been regularly meeting since last February pledging to instate a “strengthened parliamentary regime” against the current “presidential governmental system,” which was

Will Erdoğan be the President forever?

Among the contradictions Turkey faces ahead of the crucial 2023 elections is the gap between political activity that is in compliance with the Constitution and “realpolitik,”  the German term for “politics in accordance with circumstances, not principles.” This is most evident in the question of whether President and ruling Justice and Development Party’s (AKP) leader

Erdoğan may dissolve the parliament to gain electoral advantage

Turkish President Tayyip Erdoğan may dissolve the parliament and lead the country to early elections in order to gain an electoral advantage.

The first result of Türkiye, Syria meeting: Ground operation suspended

First, let’s give some good news to President Tayyip Erdogan. He will be able to pray at the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus soon, even if it is ten years late, but as the guest of Assad himself, not as the guest of the armies he hoped would overthrow Bashar Assad. Because of the push from

“Imamoğlu is a big bite, he sticks in your throat. We would choke you, we will choke you” This is how main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu called out Interior Minister Süleyman Soylu, who said that he could dismiss Istanbul Metropolitan Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu from his position once the appeals courts would
