@ainyrockstar Der politische Islam sagt alle möglichen Lügen. Das Kopftuch haben nichts mit dem Islam zu tun, und dumme muslimische Frauen glauben, was man ihnen sagt, ohne es zu lesen. Es ist zweifelhaft, ob die ersten muslimischen Frauen Kleidung hatten, mit der sie sich bedecken konnten.
Turkiye - actually biggest macro risk is potential fall out from poorly managed stock market, pump and dump schemes, stock manipulation. MSCI downgrading Turkiye would be huge blow to country view - a downgrade from EM to Frontier.
According to Turkish media, the #Ankara Chief Public Prosecutor has requested the lifting of Özgür #Özel’s parliamentary immunity as part of a bribery investigation. Following the arrest of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem #İmamoğlu and 36 opposition mayors, #Erdoğan’s crackdown has now reached the leader of the country’s main opposition party, just as he announced the launch of a new political movement. The allegations may change, but the objective remains the same: to silence every credible democratic alternative and everyone who believes in a free, democratic and pluralistic #Türkiye 🇹🇷
Sinem #Dedetaş, the young mayor of #Üsküdar, did not lose at the ballot box. She won. However, today she was detained as part of the latest so-called corruption investigation, which is part of an ongoing campaign against #Turkey’s democratic opposition. In today’s Turkey, supporting Ekrem #İmamoğlu and advocating for democratic change is enough to make you a target. Elected mayors are being removed from office one after another through politically motivated investigations. When those chosen by the electorate are treated as enemies, democracy itself is under attack. Europe cannot remain silent.
Former British Diplomat Alastair Crooke on the true aim behind the Ukraine-Russia war:
"What is the aim of this war for America? It's the same aim that's been there for nearly 200 years: to break up Russia, to partition it into its separate parts, and to steal its resources."
#TurkeyWatch🇹🇷: Turkey ordered the detention of 36 Turks. They are accused of bribery and rigged contracts.
The arrests included CHP opposition Mayor Güner of Ankara's Cankaya district.
ERDOĞAN’S TURKEY = NO OPPOSITION = NO PROBLEM.
The arrest operations under way against Ankara Mayor Hüseyin Can Güner and members of the municipal administration raise grave concerns about democracy in Türkiye. After Ekrem İmamoğlu’s arrest and trial, and the ruling that returned the CHP to its discredited old leadership, this can no longer be dismissed as coincidence. A dark shadow is falling over Turkish democracy. As European Democrats, we stand for the rule of law, pluralism and free political opposition.
Listen up, Fuckface. Every time you open your fucking mouth, another truckload of bullshit spills out. The world is exhausted from listening to your endless fucking lies. Go fuck yourself with your fake victories you delusional sack of shit.
When a stand-up comedian is arrested in handcuffs as if he were a national security threat, the problem is not comedy. The problem is @RTErdogan ’s fear of free citizens. Days before the NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey is exposing the reality behind the façade: critics, activists and artists are being silenced while leaders prepare for the photo-op. NATO cannot claim to defend democracy abroad while ignoring repression within its own ranks. Free speech is security too.
