Ankara Kalesi'nin taş duvarları arasında, kahve kokusuna karışan metal ve dumanın izini sürerek ulaştığımız teneke barakada, Y'si düşmüş “Kalacı” tabelasının altında yarım asrı aşkın bir emeğin hikâyesi sürüyor: Fahrettin Küçük, namı diğer Fahrettin Usta, 1950'lerde Tokat'tan Ankara'ya göç edip kalaycılığı sırtlayan babası Faik Usta'nın mirasını 7 yaşında kap yıkayarak devralmış, 12'sinde kalaycı olmuş ve 54 yıldır ocağın başında bakırı yeniden hayata döndürüyor; ona göre bakır yalnızca bir metal değil, rızık ve şifa, kalay ise sağlıklı sofraların unutulmuş sesi. Endüstriyel mutfakların soğukluğuna, çelik ve alüminyumun yükselişine rağmen, ciğerlerine işleyen dumana ve ağır bedeline karşın “çalışmayınca hasta oluruz” diyerek dükkânı açık tutan Fahrettin Usta, aslında bir zanaati değil, Ankara'nın dokunsal belleğini, sesini ve kokusunu kalaylıyor; çünkü o kapı kapandığında bakır belki yine parlar ama şehir biraz daha sessizleşir, biz biraz daha eksiliriz.

Ein Kommentar von Paul Clemente.Die Berlinale teilt das Schicksal aller Kulturfestivals im 21. Jahrhundert: Die Präsentation der Werke ist zweitrangig. Das eigentliche Interesse, die großen Schlagzeilen gehören dem politischen Skandal. Kein Leinwand-Spektakel wird sehnsuchtsvoll erwartet, sondern der Tritt in den Fettnapf. Man wartet darauf: Irgendeinem armen Wicht, ob Regisseur, Darsteller oder Jury-Mitglied, rutscht der „falsche“ Satz raus. Und los geht's: Die Aussage wird skandalisiert und der Journalist zum Raubtieren, das seine Beute genüsslich zerfetzt.Dieses Jahr bot sich Wim Wenders als Opfer an. Gleich zu Beginn des Festivals. Dabei ist der achtzigjährige Regisseur null auf Krawall gebürstet. Aber auf der Pressekonferenz der Jury fragte ein Aktivist: ob der Anwesende den Kurs der Bundesrepublik zum Gaza-Krieg unterstütze. Wenders ungeschickte Antwort: „Wir müssen uns aus der Politik raushalten. ... Wir sind das Gegengewicht zur Politik, wir sind das Gegenteil der Politik.“ Damit war der Skandal perfekt. Die publizistische Schlacht konnte beginnen.So erklärte die indische Autorin Arundhati Roy Wenders Replik für „unfassbar“. Konsequenz: Sie sagte ihre Teilnahme an der Berlinale ab. Es folgte ein offener Brief, von 80 Künstlern unterschrieben: Darunter Regisseur Mike Leigh, Fotografin Nan Goldin und Schauspielerin Tilda Swinton. Die empörten sich über das „institutionelle Schweigen“ des Festivals. Mehr noch, sie beschuldigten die Jury der „Beteiligung an der Zensur von Künstlern, die Israels andauernden Völkermord an den Palästinensern im Gazastreifen ablehnen“. Hier ist eine Zwischenfrage fällig: Weshalb die sofortige Eskalation? Wieso ist Frau Roy nicht zur Berlinale geflogen, um ihren Standpunkt vor Ort zu diskutieren? Wozu ein sofortiger Boykott? Das Erzwingen einer bestimmten Positionierung wird die Debattenkultur kaum verbessern.Während des Wenders-Bashings trat Kulturstaatsminister Wolfram Weimer auf den Plan: Der Regisseur werde „von Pali-Aktivisten", also anti-israelischen, pro-palästinensischen Aktivisten bedrängt. O-Ton: „Ich würde ihn da gerne in Schutz nehmen, weil ich finde, er hat genau die richtigen Worte gefunden." Die Berlinale sei immer eine politische Veranstaltung gewesen: „Es werden die heiklen Themen alle angesprochen." Tatsächlich haben die Autoren des Offenen Briefes das Berlinale-Programm nicht gelesen. Darin hätten sie die Ankündigung des Films „Chronicles From the Siege“ gefunden. Das Kinodebut des syrisch-palästinensischen Regisseurs Abdallah Alkhatib zeigt den Alltag, die Überlebensstrategien der Menschen in Gaza. Eine Szene spielt in einer Videothek, wo Filmfans überlegen, ob sie ihre Kultfilme als Brennmaterial verwenden sollen, um nicht zu erfrieren. Alkhatib erhielt den GWFF-Preis für das Beste Spielfilmdebüt. Bei seiner Dankesrede brachte er eine Palästinenser-Flagge auf die Bühne und beschuldigte die Bundesregierung, „Partner des Völkermords in Gaza zu sein". Umweltminister Carsten Schneider verließ daraufhin den Saal. Berlins regierender Bürgermeister Wegner kommentierte: Den Pro-Palästina-Aktivisten gehe es nicht um Menschenrechte, sondern um Hasserzeugung gegen Israel. Politische Inhalte dürften auch die Wahl des Gewinners, die Verleihung des Goldenen Bären mitbestimmt haben. Den erhielt der deutsche Film „Gelbe Briefe“ von İlker Çatak. Das letzte Mal, dass ein Film aus hiesigem Lande diese Auszeichnung erhielt, war 2004: „Gegen die Wand“ von Fatih Akin. Mancher wird sich fragen: Ist es Zufall, dass beide Bären-Filme von türkischstämmigen Regisseuren gedreht wurden? Wohl kaum. Denn beide, Akin und Çatak, haben Mut zum Ungeschönten, zum Aufzeigen von Missständen. Ohne Rücksicht auf modische Diskurse. Ein Mut, der vielen ihrer deutschen Kollegen fehlt. Nehmen wir „Gelbe Briefe“: Präsentiert wird ein Ankara, wo Opposition zum sozialen Tod – zu Jobverlust und Isolierung führt....https://apolut.net/die-berlinale-skandale-gewinner-und-vampire-von-paul-clemente/ Hosted on Acast.

En Allemagne, le temps partiel qui connait un succès retentissant, pourrait être restreint. Actuellement, 40% des Allemands bénéficient d'un allègement de leur temps de travail, dont une écrasante majorité de femmes. Depuis 2001, les entreprises de plus de quinze salariés doivent en effet accorder un temps partiel, sous certaines conditions, aux collaborateurs présents depuis plus de six mois. Cet avantage est plutôt vécu comme un problème dans certains secteurs qui subissent un manque de main-d'œuvre. L'aile économique du parti chrétien-démocrate, la CDU du chancelier Friedrich Merz, s'est emparée de ce qu'elle considère comme une dérive. En Allemagne, le sujet, et surtout la manière dont il est présenté, suscite une vive polémique. Le reportage à Berlin de Delphine Nerbollier. La Hongrie, la population s'effondre malgré la politique nataliste Dès son retour au pouvoir en 2010, le Premier ministre ultra-conservateur Viktor Orban a mis en place différentes mesures pour inciter ses concitoyens à avoir plus d'enfants : importantes réductions d'impôts pour les familles, aides au logement… Un slogan a même fait son apparition : « Un pays qui aime la famille ». Malgré ces efforts, la population diminue. Le pays compte aujourd'hui moins de 9 millions et demi d'habitants contre plus de 10 millions en 2010. À Budapest, les explications de Florence La Bruyère. En Turquie, l'obésité est devenue une priorité nationale Avec près de 32% d'adultes obèses, le pays affiche l'un des taux les plus élevés d'Europe.

Ankara Kalesi'nin vitrini parlıyor; ama biz bu bölümde o parıltının arkasına, kalenin “öte yüzüne” gidiyoruz. Arslanhane Camii'nin gölgesinden Atpazarı'nın yokuşlarına inerken, meşe odunlarının izini sürüp yüz yılı aşkın süredir aynı noktada yanan ateşe ulaşıyoruz: Tarihi Doğuş Simit Fırını'na. Balalı Mustafa Usta'nın küreğiyle fırına verdiği simitler, sadece un ve susamdan ibaret değil; Niğdelilerin, Çorumluların, Haymanalıların göç hikâyelerini, alın terini ve Ankara'nın çok katmanlı hafızasını taşıyor. Tablacı Mustafa'nın başının üstünde sokaklara dağılan o çıtır halka, bu kentin en demokratik lezzeti… Kale'nin öte yüzünde pişen şey yalnızca simit değil; Ankara'nın direnen belleği.

Staunchly allied with Turkey, Somalia has become a flashpoint in Turkey's rivalry with Israel. Ankara recently deployed fighter jets to Mogadishu in the latest signal that it is determined to protect its strategic interests in the Horn of Africa after Israel recognised the breakaway region of Somaliland. In a conspicuous display of military strength, Turkish F-16 fighter jets roared over the Somali capital, Mogadishu, in late January. According to Turkish officials, the deployment was aimed at protecting Turkish interests and supporting Somali efforts to counter an insurgency by the radical Islamist group al-Shabaab. It follows Israel's recognition of Somaliland in December, which Ankara condemned as a threat to Somalia's territorial integrity. Turkish international relations expert Soli Ozel said the jets send a message to Israel: "Don't mess with our interests here." Somalia is poised to become the latest point of tension between the countries, he predicts. "I don't think they will fight, but they are both showing their colours. Israel's recognition of Somaliland and the Turks sending F-16s and drones are attempts to set limits to what the other party can do," he said. "Could it get out of hand? I don't know. It may." The risky calculations behind Israel's recognition of Somaliland Mutual suspicion The episode reflects broader strains in Israeli-Turkish relations, which remain fraught over Ankara's support of Hamas and Israel's war in Gaza. "It's a new chapter in the competition between the two countries, which are now the dominant military powers in the Middle East," said Norman Ricklefs, CEO of geopolitical consultancy Namea Group. According to Gallia Lindenstrauss, an Israeli foreign policy specialist at the Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv, Israel is not seeking to challenge the interests of Turkey or Somalia. Instead, she argues Israel's recognition of Somaliland and its commitment to deepening cooperation are motivated by the breakaway's state strategic location facing Yemen, where Houthi rebels launched attacks against Israeli cities last year. "The Houthis were the last ones who were still launching missiles against Israel, from the Iranian proxies. This is the most major threat for Israel," she said. However, Lindenstrauss acknowledges that both sides increasingly view each other's actions with suspicion. "What Israel sees as defence, Turkey sees as something against Ankara." Rival blocs Turkey's suspicions could grow if Israel deploys military hardware in Somaliland to counter threats from Yemen, a move an anonymous Israeli expert suggested is Israel's aim. Ricklefs warns Israel needs to tread carefully, given the significant investments Turkey had made in Somalia over the past 15 years. Turkey has its largest overseas military base and embassy in Somalia, while Ankara has signed agreements with Mogadishu to explore potential energy reserves, as well as a naval accord. "Turkey is running the [Mogadishu] port, counterterrorism training, charities, NGOs, and all that kind of stuff. So it appears very important to Turkey's regional strategic ambitions," said Ricklefs. He noted that Somalia's location on the Horn of Africa, with coastlines in the Gulf of Aden and Indian Ocean, makes it "key for regional influence". With Somalia naval deal, Turkey steers into strategic but volatile region Lindenstrauss observed that the Turkish-Israeli rivalry over Somalia is further complicated by the emergence of two competing axes: "On the one hand, you see Greece, Cyprus, Israel, the UAE. On the other hand, you see Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Egypt and Qatar," she explained. "They are loose axes, but you do see that on many issues, these two axes think differently. And that's also a cause of the rising tensions." Ricklefs noted that tensions have already spilled over into confrontation elsewhere. “We've already seen the pretty strong competition leading to violence in Libya, between blocs aligned with the Emirates and, on the other side, blocs aligned with Turkey in Libya," he said. As for whether the same could happen in Somalia, Ricklefs said he doesn't believe the situation has yet reached that point. "I don't think we're there just yet with Somaliland and Somalia," he said. "And frankly, the only party that can play a mediating role, a conflict-reducing role, in this situation is the United States."
Welcome to The Times of Israel's Lazar Focus. Each Friday, join host diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. Only 16 days before the October 7, 2023, attack, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took to the podium at the United Nations. As a Saudi diplomat listened intently, he said, "We are on the cusp of an even more dramatic breakthrough, a historic peace between Israel and Saudi Arabia.” The war that erupted with the Hamas invasion has, not surprisingly, pushed off normalization, but it was still seen as likely once the hostages came back and Hamas was beaten. That prognosis has been replaced by alarm in recent months. The rivalry between Saudi Arabia and the UAE -- a close Israeli ally -- spilled out into the open in Yemen, and continues to simmer in Sudan and Libya. Meanwhile, Riyadh's relations with Ankara and Doha continue to improve. In parallel, Saudi media and clerics launched a bitter war of words on the UAE, Israel, and even Jews. Berman drills down into the economic, strategic, and military roots of the UAE-Saudi regional rivalry, and whether the idea of blocs in the Middle East is even accurate. He then gives his assessment of whether Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman is really realigning the kingdom's foreign policy, and what it means for a peace deal with Israel.

Durante las últimas dos décadas, Turquía se ha convertido en un actor clave en África. Aunque con mayor discreción que China o Rusia, Ankara ha logrado expandir con éxito su influencia en el continente. Desde drones y programas de becas hasta contratos de construcción y ONG humanitarias islámicas, Karina Chabour investigó esta ofensiva, que combina la cooperación económica y militar con la influencia religiosa.
A meeting between the leaders of Greece and Turkey next week seeks to rejuvenate a stalled rapprochement process between the neighbouring countries, amid growing tensions and fears of an unpredictable intervention by US President Donald Trump. Wednesday's meeting in Ankara between Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is the latest in a series aimed at improving relations. It stems from the 2023 Athens Declaration, a formal statement of friendship that led to better economic cooperation and a cooling of military tensions over the disputed Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean Seas. Mitsotakis's visit comes at a critical time for the process. “I think it's very important, the meeting has been postponed twice in the past,” says former Greek foreign ministry advisor Panayotis Ioakimidis, who now teaches at the University of Athens. “There are some people within the [Greek] governing party, and outside it, who have serious reservations about improving or even talking about relations with Turkey,” he notes. “So it's very important for the meeting to happen, to keep cooperation going; otherwise, relations risk sliding into conflict.” Claims on the Aegean The talks come as tensions over the Aegean Sea – believed to have vast untapped energy reserves – are on the rise. In January, the Greek foreign minister, George Gerapetritis, announced Greece's intent to exercise its right under international law to extend its territorial waters in the Aegean from six to 12 nautical miles, to create a marine park. Erdogan is expected to remind his Greek counterpart that any extension of territorial waters is a red line for Turkey. “Mitsotakis will get some lectures in Ankara,” predicts international relations professor Huseyin Bagci of Ankara's Middle East Technical University. In 1995, the Turkish parliament passed a motion declaring that Greece unilaterally extending its waters beyond six miles was a casus belli – cause for war. “Twelve miles [of] territorial waters for Greece means the Turkish ships cannot go one kilometre outside of Turkish territory. Turkey cannot accept this,” says Bagci. In response, Athens is using Greece's European Union veto to prevent Turkey from joining the EU's SAFE defence procurement programme until Turkey withdraws its threat of war. Turkey and Egypt's joint naval drill signals shifting Eastern Med alliances Alliance with Israel Adding to tensions, last December Greece and Cyprus signed a series of defence agreements with one of Turkey's fiercest rivals – Israel. Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan accused Israel of seeking to encircle Turkey, while Turkish media dubbed it an “axis of evil”. Mitsotakis is expected to try to allay such concerns during his visit to Ankara. “The Greek side thinks it can separate these issues and keep them quite separate from the bilateral issues between Greece and Turkey,” says Ioakimidis. “But it's a very likely scenario to take the countries into very dangerous waters.” Israel's military support of Greece is to blame for Athens' more assertive stance in the Aegean, argues Murat Aslan of the Foundation for Political, Economic and Social Research, a Turkish pro-government think tank. He says that Greece acts more boldly when backed by others: “Once they enjoy the support of another, material or narrative, they are much more courageous to challenge.” If Greece maintains this approach, Aslan suggests, Turkey will likely go back to increasing its military activity. Prior to recent attempts at rapprochement, Turkish and Greek warplanes often challenged each another in mock dogfights in the disputed airspace over the Aegean. Turkey flexes naval muscles as neighbours fear escalating arms race Trump effect However, Trump could provide an impetus to contain tensions. With the American ambassador to Greece announcing this week that the US president will visit Athens, both Erdogan and Mitsotakis will be wary of Trump's involvement in their bilateral affairs. “I think both countries are concerned about this destabilisation to the international order that the Trump administration has brought,” says Ioannis Grigoriadis of Ankara's Bilkent University, a specialist in Greek-Turkish relations. “It may be a strong incentive for both sides to declare that things are OK, so let's keep Trump's intervention away from Turkish-Greek relations. I don't think that any side would like that to happen, given the circumstances and the unpredictability of such an intervention.” Wednesday's meeting is set to emphasise the economic benefits of rapprochement and regional cooperation. However, amid persistent Aegean tensions and Turkey's concerns over Israel's role, expectations for progress remain low.
Start with the vow we all think we'd keep: “Even if everyone else deserts you, I will never desert you.” Then hear the rooster. This conversation moves from Peter's promise and denial to the Last Supper, Gethsemane's honest sorrow, and the mercy that meets us when we fail. Along the way, we press into 1 Corinthians 7 to rethink intimacy as mutual service and shared discipline, and we sit with Psalm 31 and Proverbs 8 to relearn courage, prudence, and the kind of leadership that makes homes and nations steadier.We don't stay abstract. A 2013 bombing at the U.S. Embassy in Ankara and a Medal of Honor snapshot of Christopher Brennan remind us that ideas have consequences and character carries weight. We contrast hollow outrage with durable virtues: truthfulness in trade, restraint with our words, and respect for our neighbor's name. Noah Webster's no-nonsense counsel lands like a challenge—stop the mischief that tears down what others are building, practice justice in small things, and keep silent unless conscience demands speech. Wisdom is not flashy; it is faithful.If your marriage needs a reset, if your memory of what matters has faded, or if your leadership at home or work feels thin, this is a path back: pray honestly, serve sacrificially, seek wisdom first, and let history teach you. The crow is not the end. It's the signal to turn around and stand up rightly. Listen, share with a friend, and leave a quick review to help others find the show. Then tell us: what promise will you keep this week, no matter who's watching?#NoahWebster #DailyScripture #JocelynNungaraySupport the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe Countryside Book Series https://www.amazon.com/Countryside-Book-J-T-Cope-IV-ebook/dp/B00MPIXOB2

CHP Dış Politika Koordinatörü Prof. Dr. İlhan Uzgel, İslam Özkan'ın sunduğu Dünya Alem programında Türkiye'nin dış politikasına ve Ortadoğu'da yaşanan son gelişmelere dair kritik değerlendirmelerde bulundu. Uzgel, Suriye'de HTŞ öncülüğünde yaşanan rejim değişikliğini bir “istihbarat operasyonu” olarak tanımlarken, Türkiye'nin dış politikasının 2021'den itibaren giderek “Amerikancı” bir eksene kaydığını savundu. Trump yönetiminin Ortadoğu'yu doğrudan değil, Türkiye, Suudi Arabistan, İsrail ve Mısır gibi müttefikler eliyle yönetmek istediğini belirten Uzgel, Ankara'nın bu yeni denklemde aktif rol üstlendiğini ifade etti.

In Kobane leiden die Menschen. Erste Hilfslieferungen kommen an, die kurdische Stadt in Syrien wird aber weiterhin belagert. Die Waffenruhe zwischen den syrischen Regierungstruppen und den kurdischen Milizen soll Zeit geben, eine Lösung für die Zukunft der Kurden in Syrien zu finden. Die Kurden wollen ihre politische Identität und auch ihre Autonomie behalten. In Syrien ist eine föderale Struktur aber stark umstritten, gerade die arabischstämmige Bevölkerung in den kurdischen Gebieten ist dagegen. Und auch von außen erhöht sich der Druck: die Türkei und Israel bevorzugen einen zentralen Staat. Die USA unterstützen die kurdischen Milizen nicht mehr. In der Türkei hat sich die kurdische Arbeiterpartei PKK vor etwa einem Jahr aufgelöst. Die Kämpfer und Kämpferinnen haben sich in den Nordirak zurückgezogen, hoffen aber auf einen erfolgreichen Friedensprozess. In der Autonomieregion Kurdistan im Irak verwalten sich die Kurden selbst, sind aber auch von politischen Spannungen und wirtschaftlicher Unsicherheit betroffen. Und auch bei uns in Deutschland fühlt sich die Mehrheit der Kurden und Kurdinnen diskriminiert. Gibt es keine Hoffnung für sie auf Anerkennung, politische Teilhabe und kulturelle Freiheit? Darüber sprechen wir unter anderen mit Anita Starosta von Medico International, der Ethnologin Lale Yalçin-Heckmann und mit Kamal Sido von der Gesellschaft für bedrohte Völker. Podcast-Tipp: Deutschlandfunk Kultur - Weltzeit Kurden in der Türkei - Arbeiterpartei PKK fordert Frieden und Freiheit Seit 2024 läuft der neue Friedensprozess zwischen der Türkei und der verbotenen Arbeiterpartei Kurdistan. PKK-Gründer Öcalan hat zu Gewaltverzicht aufgerufen. Nun ist Ankara am Zug. Es geht um Demokratie, kulturelle Identität und mehr Freiheiten. https://www.ardaudiothek.de/episode/urn:ard:episode:7056bb17d5c30508/
Note: The body of Ran Gvili, the last hostage held in Gaza, was found by the soldiers of the IDF this morning while we were recording. It was with great relief that I took off my hostage pin. May HaShem bless the memory of Ran Gvili. Here, I believe, is the most poignant portrayal of the unwavering faith and loyalty that inspires Israel’s soldiers. https://x.com/i/status/2015787812155457931 While we were snowed in, we recorded this week’s JPC webinar and, assuming you are still snowed in as well, we are sending it to you today. Our guest was Dr. Mark Meirowitz, Professor of Humanities at SUNY Maritime College. As an expert on Turkey and Turkish foreign policy, he discussed Ankara’s role in Syria and its broader geopolitical implications. The conversation included historical and current regional power dynamics, including Turkey’s relationships with Israel (and Gaza), Cyprus, and other Middle Eastern countries. Grab a cup of coffee and don’t even think about shoveling for a while. Best, Shoshana
The Syrian Army has made sweeping gains against Kurdish-led forces in northeast Syria, dealing a major blow to Syrian Kurdish autonomy and handing victories to both Damascus and neighbouring Turkey. With Washington abandoning its backing of the militia alliance, the Syrian Democratic Forces now face disbandment or renewed fighting. Within days, Syrian government troops swept aside the SDF and took control of vast areas of territory. The offensive followed the collapse of talks on integrating the SDF into the Syrian Army. Washington's shift proved decisive. “The game changer was the American permission, the American green light to [Syrian President] Ahmed al-Sharaa. That opened the door to Damascus launching the offensive,” said Syria expert Fabrice Balanche, of Lyon University. The SDF had been a key US ally in the fight against Islamic State and relied on American support to deter an attack by Damascus. But with Islamic State now weakened and Sharaa joining Washington's alliance against the group, the Kurds lost their leverage. “Trump viewed the relationship as temporary, not a true alliance,” said Balanche, a municipal councillor with France's rightwing Republicans party. French journalist arrested in Turkey while covering pro-Kurdish protest released US withdrawal and rapid collapse As Washington ended its support, many Arab tribes quit the Kurdish-led coalition. They aligned with Damascus, allowing government forces to advance quickly in Arab-majority areas. Several prisons holding Islamic State members fell to government control, with reports that hundreds escaped. Fears of wider instability pushed Washington to broker a ceasefire between the SDF and the Syrian government. Under the deal, SDF forces are to disband and merge into Syrian government units, a move backed by Ankara. Turkey has strongly supported the Damascus offensive. It accuses Kurdish elements within the SDF of links to the PKK, which has fought a decades-long insurgency against the Turkish state. “Turkey is certainly behind all these operations,” said international relations professor Huseyin Bagci of Ankara's Middle East Technical University. “The Turkish defence minister, General Chief of Staff, has recently been in Syria. So there is probably a common action.” Turkey blocks calls for regime change in Iran as protests escalate Kurdish tensions inside Turkey The assault has triggered protests by members of Turkey's large Kurdish minority in support of Syrian Kurds. It has also coincided with talks between the pro-Kurdish Dem Party, the Turkish government and the outlawed PKK aimed at ending the conflict. The PKK declared a ceasefire and pledged to disband last year, but talks stalled months ago. Ankara has blamed the deadlock on the SDF's refusal to join the PKK's disarmament commitment. The fighting in Syria could deepen Kurdish disillusionment with the peace process, political analyst Sezin Oney, of the Politikyol news portal, warned. “They pictured this peace process as a big win for the PKK that finally all these rights, all the political rights, cultural rights, everything would be recognized, and a new era would begin," Oney said. "It's not that, and it won't be that there is nobody in Turkey on the side of the government who was envisioning such a change or anything of the sort." The Dem Party had few options left. “The only thing Dem can do is rally the Kurdish public in Turkey, and it is just going to be disbursed,” Oney added. Syrian army offensive in Aleppo draws support from Turkey Risk of wider bloodshed Turkish police have broken up many pro-SDF protests using water cannon and gas, carrying out hundreds of arrests. French journalist Raphael Boukandoura was detained and later released, in a move rights groups said was meant to intimidate foreign media. Without US intervention, Damascus would push further into Kurdish-held areas, Balanche warned. “Sharaa will seize everything." The risk of large-scale violence, he added, was growing in a region marked by tribal rivalries and years of war. “Northeastern Syria is a very tribal area. The tribal leaders who are mobilizing their groups, their fighters, and they're attacking," Balanche said. “Because of 10 years of civil war, you have a lot of vengeance that was under the table, and now everything is exploding. So it could be very bloody.”

En Turquie, les statistiques résistent.... et n'annoncent pas d'amélioration sur la place des femmes dans le monde du travail. Seules un tiers d'entre elles ont un emploi légal dans le pays. Un chiffre comparable au pire pays européen en la matière, l'île de Malte. Et pourtant même si la Turquie ne fait pas partie de l'Union européenne, un programme européen intitulé « Women up » vient soutenir les femmes entrepreneures. 11 000 emplois ont ainsi pu être créés.

Ankara, 26 octobre 1943. Ludwig Moyzisch, attaché à l'ambassade d'Allemagne, reçoit la visite nocturne d'un valet de l'ambassade britannique. L'homme propose de vendre des photos de documents ultra-secrets contre 20 000 livres par livraison, sinon il ira voir les Soviétiques. Berlin accepte : l'espion est baptisé “Cicéron”. Les pellicules révèlent des plans et messages “hautement confidentiels” sur la stratégie des Alliés, jusqu'aux indices d'Overlord. Mais l'affaire se grippe : filatures, soupçons britanniques, codes changés, trahisons internes et paranoïa à Berlin. Cicéron encaisse une fortune, puis disparaît quand le danger devient trop grand. Moyzisch survivra, témoignera après-guerre et publiera son récit. Ultime ironie : une partie des sommes versées à Cicéron était en faux billets.

Turkey is opposing calls for regime change in Iran as security forces carry out a deadly crackdown on nationwide protests. The Turkish government accuses Israel of exploiting the unrest, and is leading efforts to block any military action against Iran – warning that a collapse of the regime could destabilise the region. Since protests began across Iran almost three weeks ago, Turkey has tried to play down the scale of the unrest. It has distanced itself from Western allies calling for regime change and avoided offering explicit support for those demands. The protests began on 28 December after a currency collapse triggered demonstrations by merchants and traders in Tehran. The unrest quickly spread nationwide. Activists say more than 2,000 protesters have been killed. Alongside Saudi Arabia, Oman and Qatar, Turkey has lobbied Washington against any military response to the killings. Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said such a move would worsen the situation. “We oppose military intervention against Iran; Iran must resolve its own problems,” Fidan said. “We want the issue resolved through dialogue.” France summons Iran envoy over 'unrestrained' protest crackdown Fear of regional collapse According to The Guardian newspaper, US President Donald Trump's decision to step back from attacking Iran was influenced by Turkey and its Arab allies – who warned of regional chaos if an attack went ahead. Turkey fears that Iran could descend into civil war similar to Iraq after the collapse of its regime, said Serhan Afacan, head of the Ankara-based Center for Iranian Studies, adding the consequences would be more severe due to Iran's size and diversity. “Iran has a population of about 90 million, including many ethnic minorities such as Turks, Kurds, Arabs and Baluchis,” Afacan explained. “If a conflict erupts among these groups, it could result in a prolonged civil war. Any resulting immigration from Iran to Turkey could reach millions.” Turkey and Iran unite against Israel as regional power dynamics shift PKK security fears Turkey already hosts about three million refugees. Experts say Ankara's biggest security concern is the Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK, which has fought Turkey for an independent Kurdish state and has an Iranian affiliate, PJAK. Although the PKK announced a ceasefire last year and pledged to disband, Ankara fears unrest in Iran could give the group new opportunities, said Iranian expert Bilgehan Alagoz, of Marmara University. “Day by day, we have started to see the PKK groups in certain cities of Iran demanding some separatist demands, and this is the main concern for Turkey,” he said. Ankara also accuses Israel of exploiting the situation in Iran. “Israel has targeted all these PKK groups and tried to motivate the PKK groups inside Iran,” Alagoz said. “Any instability inside Iran can create a space for the PKK.” Fidan has also accused Israel of manipulating the protests. Turkey is already confronting another PKK-linked group in Syria, the Syrian Democratic Forces, which controls large parts of the country. Ankara accuses Israel of supporting the SDF, adding Iran to a broader Israeli-Turkish regional rivalry. France's Iranian diaspora divided over deadly protests back home Energy pressure Turkey could also clash with Washington over Iran if the protests continue. Trump has warned that countries trading with Tehran could face 25 percent tariffs. Iran supplies Turkey with about one-fifth of its gas needs, according to Atilla Yesilada, an analyst at the Global Source Partners think tank. “Iran pumps 10 billion cubic metres of gas to Turkey every year, roughly one-fifth of total consumption,” he said. That supply could theoretically be replaced by liquefied natural gas imports, but Yesilada warned that Turkey is already struggling to cut its dependence on Russia, its main energy supplier. “Combine this with increasing American and EU pressure to cut gas purchases from Russia, and Turkey is in a very difficult situation,” he said.
En deux décennies, la Turquie de Recep Tayyip Erdogan s'est imposée comme un acteur majeur en Afrique.

Karina Chabour a enquêté sur cette offensive, qui mêle coopération économique, militaire et influence religieuse.
