Today, the agenda of both the country and the world changes very frequently. People have a hard time following. It can be said that the frequent changes in the country's agenda especially support the change in the agenda of the rulers.
However, when a similar situation arises on the world agenda, "I wonder if the global powers are decisive in this matter, too?" question comes to mind. In a way, do global powers set the agenda and achieve their interests more easily this way? It is possible to list many questions, but as a result, it is a fact that the global powers that hold the power are decisive whether we want it or not.
In today's conditions, bringing a subject to the agenda and leaving it to be forgotten happens all of a sudden. For example, for years, the USA has been insisting on the delivery of F-16s to our country. So much so that he neither says nor will I give these planes for which we have paid. He's using a diversionary tactic. At one point, the delivery of the planes in question to Turkey is out of the question, and another time it is on the agenda again.
In fact, according to the statements made, the planes were delivered to our country and will be. But days pass, no one comes and goes. Earlier this month, positive statements began to come from the USA about the delivery of F-16s. At the beginning of last week, our Foreign Minister Çavuşoğlu went to the USA. This visit to the USA was given in one of our newspapers under the title of “Hard bargaining with the USA on five issues”. Çavuşoğlu came and went, but there is silence about the talks. It is as if the subject has been left to sleep again.
At this point, I would like to briefly talk about 5 issues that Foreign Minister Çavuşoğlu will discuss, again according to the news in question. The subject of the meeting is as follows:
"Delivery of F-16s, ground operation in Syria, extradition of FETO members, Sweden's NATO membership, Ukraine-Russia war..." In other words, it was envisaged that a hard bargain would be made on these issues. However, as I pointed out above, it is not clear what the outcome of the bargain was. Let me point out right away; It is not clear to us. I think it is determined by the delegation conducting the negotiations.
However, the result we wanted could not be achieved or it would have spread over time, so there is no public announcement. Let me point out right away; This is not an unknown issue. For years, the USA has been pretending to give in, especially about the delivery of F-16s, and then the issue is left to be forgotten. By the way, especially when it comes to the USA's supply of F-35 planes to Greece, this means that the USA abandoned the balance policy between Greece and Turkey, which, as Foreign Minister Çavuşoğlu put it, has been implemented until now.
In fact, it is a manifestation of unilateral optimism to think that the USA is implementing a policy of balance between the two countries. Because the USA is on the side of Greece, not Turkey, in every issue. In this case, as Turkey, we need to choose our side correctly. Now, the USA has determined its place as the side of the Crusader alliance, even though it talks about balance or something.
That is why there is talk of turning NATO into an EU army. On the other hand, the Crusader alliance EU, while resisting not to include Turkey, can easily open all its doors to NATO. In short, it is necessary not to evaluate the events only according to the visible faces and the spoken words. After all these evaluations, it would not be wrong to say that no serious results can be obtained from the negotiations with the USA.
