Turkish Foreign Policy and Regional Geopolitics

[Foinikas]

Many of the places you are showing on your map are incorrect btw, case in point Cyprus, the red dot shown there has no people, its an air and naval base only.

Of course. They are two huge bases taking up a lot of space on the island.

What France is doing in New Caledonia with the Kanak People is unique. The Evil shit it does by controlling the currency of several african countries is unique, among other things.

You're overreacting and making it sound dramatic. There's two camps in New Caledonia when it comes to the Kanak:
Pro-Independence and Loyalists. The ones who've been causing the chaos are some pro-Independence factions. Which means not all people think it's a good idea to seperate.

Also,from what I've read it's not about accusing Turkey for involvement,but actually a social media campaign launched by Azerbaijan,which of course Baku officially denies.

No one lives on those bases. The Greek Cypriot govt is not challenging the sovereignty of those territories.

Yeah the white french settlers. lmao

When have the settlers of any colony supporter decolonization? The French settlers in Algeria did the same thing. France is trying to turn the Kanak people a minority on their own island, make its overwhelmingly white french, dilute the indigenous population, then they can keep it, thats their plan. France has btw been killing these people for decades, if we go and look at their historical population and account for the normal population growth trajectory, they would have already been a significant majority and have independence by now, France has been trying to delay decolonization, and now outright trying to manipulate demographics to steal the country.

No,I said among the Kanak.

Yes,unfortunately they don't. The British wouldn't let go of Akrotiri and Dhekelia bases and they occupy a considerable part of the country.

 

[hyperman]

No,I said among the Kanak.

Nope, the overwhelming majority of Kanak support independence. just look at the polling. The independence Margins and the Kamar population when you reference both together, you will see. The ones outside of the are outliers, like Algerians who supported France, or Indians who supported the British.

Yes,unfortunately they don't. The British wouldn't let go of Akrotiri and Dhekelia bases and they occupy a considerable part of the country.

How can it be an occupation if the Cypriot govt itself doesn't contest it. If its an "occupation" make the South Cypriot govt declare it sure, why don't they? Storm the base and take it over, its a very small area, storm it with protestors and occupy/"liberate" the base, they won't be able to do anything and will be forced to leave. lol, why don't the Greek Cypriots do it? Hell I would even support them if they did that.

What a great idea. Storm a military base,get shot in the process.

Also,it's not a "very small area",it's quite large

They won't shoot, and even if they do, its part of the "liberation" effort right? lol

Afghan citizens are now effectively banned from entering Türkiye, including Afghan diplomats. Reason being, they don't take back illegal immigrants.

Is it the visas on the old Islamic Republic passport? or post 2021 passports? or both?

Its good, if the govt in Kabul is not cooperating on matters, there is no reason for them to have a visa exemption privilege.

I don't think the Taliban will extend the diplomatic status of members of the previous government. This decision is specifically tailored for current holders of Afghan diplomat passports.

yeah, but no one recognizes the current govt of Afghanistan, meaning de jure the Islamic Republic not the Emirate is the one with the "official" recognition technically. If visa exemptions are being cancelled, is it in relation to former diplomats of the Islamic Republic and their families to travel to or through Turkey, or does it have to do with Taliban diplomats to visit Turkey. Idk if the talibs have a representative in Ankara, I know there were some diplomatic meetings held in Turkey that they attended and the Turkish embassy in Kabul is operating, like other embassies, on a low level.

Its been a pretty known position, good that they made it clear to those trying to go on a diplomatic tour to get people to join them in a War in Ukraine, that could have ended if they didn't try to sabotage the Istanbul peace process.
