Two months ago the foreign policy sat at the center of politics leaving whole debate behind in Turkey. The issue of Syria in Idlib, the Cyprus and Libya chapters over the Eastern Mediterranean, the axis shifting discussions triggered by the S-400 and F-35 issues, the rising tensions with the EU, that is, domestic and foreign politics, became a whole and all these were discussed in all comments. Without coronavirus, we would still be discussing these issues.
Of course, the epidemic did not completely eliminate these titles; The only agenda for everyone today is to control this epidemic and leave this war behind with the least damage. Afterwards, we will follow these agendas at full speed.
Having said that hurts inside of the human condition, but we came in with a lot of evidence now reveals that in the last 15-20 years has been Turkey's most troubled areas of foreign policy. The Syrian issue has become the crucial point of these troubles. If there is an issue called Idlib today, and discussions are taking place between America and Russia, this is the result of the wrong steps taken directly in Syria. In other words, the unpredictability shown in the management of the processes brought our country to the middle of the crisis. Now is the time to put foreign policy on the table, which turns from zero problems into valuable loneliness and then continues to experience confusion.
I would like to emphasize once again the facts that we have always tried to express.
It is an area that should be carried out with the utmost care of foreign policy. It should be kept away from the competition areas of domestic politics, which sometimes turns into hostility.
As the word goes out, it is very difficult to return. When setting up each sentence in foreign policy, it is necessary to split the hair forty. Sometimes speaking method should be used to keep quiet. It is necessary to stay as far as possible from the areas where the power will be tested by the interlocutors. There may also be times when actual power will be used, but the important thing is to solve problems with diplomacy without the need for it.
It is very likely that there are many changes in international relations after coronavirus. Turkey in particular the right to manage this process in Syria should seek to solve problems with the countries of the region, including Egypt. It is clear that this will not be very easy. The process has now turned into blood feuds. This is also true. However, it should be known that blood feuds do not win. This is the case for all parties. After a while, who squeezed the first bullet no longer makes sense. Those who benefit from this environment are global powers that turn the region into a cinema plateau for them. This will must be put forward, albeit difficult. Otherwise, managing problems will be more and more troublesome. Showing this will to the resolution of the refugees problem and the threat of new migration waves will make important contributions.
On the other hand, Turkey should draw lessons from the crisis and must be rebuilt coronavirus areas of close cooperation with countries similar to his own. This will make important contributions to bring relations with European countries, Russia and America to a healthier basis. We also emphasize D-8 most of the time. Sometimes, as we emphasize very often, it is as if we can make a little announcement and make it ordinary. This establishment is just a particular party in Turkey, we are able to have caused the perception of their own thoughts. No, I would like to express it once more because it comes from here. This nation is the owner of D-8. The will that led to its establishment has put this structure into practice not for the sake, but for the benefit of the nation. It is vital for the post-coronavirus period to activate D-8 today. Beyond being a union stuck to a particular region such as Europe, an organization spread throughout the world, especially in Turkey will be very different economic contributions.
As a result, this crisis is an opportunity that we need to seriously format foreign policy in this difficult period. It should not be late to take this opportunity.
