- The sounds of World War II began to rise step by step. Recent events in the Russia-Ukraine war and successive statements have further increased the concern of a global conflict. Increasing tension after Ukraine hit Russia with US and British-made missiles; It reached its peak when the Russian army attacked Ukrainian territory with an intercontinental missile for the first time. While the attack in question was considered an “intercontinental missile message”, a remarkable statement was made by Russian President Vladimir Putin. Putin stated that the conflict in Ukraine has gained a global character and emphasized that they are ready for any development.
Following the escalating tension in the region, President of the National Defense Commission of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey and former Minister of National Defense Hulusi Akar made evaluations about the agenda of Turkey and the world to the media representatives at the Anatolian Conversations meeting of the Anatolian Publishers Federation.
According to the report of Türkiye Newspaper, Akar said the following in summary:i:
ISRAEL’S GAZA MASSACRE
“43 thousand 985 people have lost their lives since October 7. It is a complete cruelty. A complete genocide. It does not attract anyone’s attention. It has become routine. We should not get used to it, we should not get used to it. We must keep our emotions alive.
FIGHT AGAINST TERROR
Mehmetçik’s breath is on the terrorists’ neck. Whatever the time and place is, depending on the circumstances, what is necessary is being done and will be done. Our wish is to save our citizens from this scourge of terrorism. We have no attitude whatsoever against the territorial integrity of Iraq and Syria. The fight will continue until the last terrorist is neutralized. We can’t see any other solution. It is out of the question for us to leave our security and defense to anyone’s mercy, mercy and decision.
WORLD WAR 3 AND THE ISRAEL THREAT
Let the USA and China fight. Let’s fight. So what will the automobile industry, computer industry, electronics industry, chemical industry do? What will trade do? What will banks do? What about finance? There are many parameters. Is Israel a threat to us or not? Threatening. A huge threat. Would you leave the lives of 85 million people of the Turkish state to chance like this? Does he have a gun? There is. Does it have ammunition? There is. Is there distance? There is. It’s a matter of timing. We need to be ready. They say, ‘What are we doing in Syria?’ The man came from 10 thousand kilometers, what’s the point of this? They came from 3 thousand kilometers away from Europe. What are they doing? ‘Why did you come?’ you say; They say, ‘These are threats to us, to our future.’ Aren’t the formations right under our noses, which are a threat to them, a threat to us? We must not lose our sanity.
LIEUTENANTS’ SWORD OATH
There is an extraordinary hierarchy. Ministers, rectors, institutions and disciplinary groups work within this hierarchy. We need to calmly wait for the investigation and follow the incident before passing judgment.
