BRIEFING
Cicek: Strain With US is Over: PM Tayyip Erdogan and FM
Abdullah Gul traveled to Brussels on Monday to attend the
NATO summit meeting. Papers speculate that Erdogan may meet
with President Bush, and Gul with Secretary Rice over lunch
in Brussels. Gul is expected to convey to Rice Ankara's
uneasiness about rising anti-Turkish stories in the American
press, "Cumhuriyet" reports. "Sabah" claims that the Turks
will respond to the American request to enhance Ankara's
contribution to the `NATO Training Implementation Mission'
in Iraq by sending more officers. On Monday, government
spokesman Cemil Cicek said after a meeting of cabinet
ministers that the US and Turkey have enjoyed an unbroken
historical relationship stretching back more than half a
century. There have been some `fault lines' in the past,
Cicek acknowledged, `but this is now over.' Cicek added that
both countries would benefit from a continuation of the
relationship at all levels. Responding to a question about
the unusually `soft' tone PM Erdogan used in evaluating
bilateral ties before Secretary Rice's visit to Ankara,
Cicek said the substance of such statements should be heeded
rather than their style. `Turkey values, as has been proven
many times, its relations with the United States,' Cicek
stressed. On Sunday, PM Erdogan strongly denied news
claiming a strain in ties with the US after he met with
local businessmen in Turkey's southeastern province of
Gaziantep: `Our strategic partnership with the United States
continues. Secretary Rice has said the same thing,' Erdogan
underlined. Monday's "Radikal" claims that Turkey's
National Security Council (NSC) will look for ways at its
February 25 meeting to `normalize' relations between the US
and Turkey. MFA Undersecretary Ali Tuygan is to visit
Washington in March, followed by NSC Undersecretary Yigit
Alpogan, "Radikal" reports.
Turkish Cypriot Elections: Republican Turkish Party (CTP)
leader Mehmet Ali Talat secured 24 of the 50 seats in the
`Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus' (TRNC) parliament
after obtaining 44.5 percent of the vote, but failed to gain
an outright majority to set up a government on his own. His
main rival, the National Unity Party (UBP) of former prime
minister Dervis Eroglu, got 19 seats, while Talat's
coalition partner, Serdar Denktas's Democrat Party (DP), won
6 seats. Papers expect Talat to once again form a coalition
with DP. Talat called on Greek Cypriot President
Papadopoulos to agree to revive the stalled peace process.
A spokesman for the Greek Government said on Monday that
Greece hoped for a more `constructive' stance from the
Turkish Cypriots in northern Cyprus.
Britain Prepares for Direct Flights to `TRNC': Britain is
to launch direct flights to northern Cyprus after July 1,
the date Britain will take over the EU term presidency,
"Zaman" reports. The article is based on a report in the
"European Voice," a brussels-based publication. The UK is
working on a formula to begin charter flights to the north,
as Ercan Airport in the `TRNC' is not recognized by the
International Civic Aviation Organization.
Greek, Armenian Lobbies Support WSJ Article Against Turkey:
Conservative/opinion maker "Zaman" reports that the Greek
and Armenian lobbies in the US have distributed a recent
article, `The Sick Man of Europe --- Again,' by Robert L.
Pollock of "The Wall Street Journal" to US congressmen who
are close to their causes. Many Armenians in the US have
congratulated Pollock, but reaction from the Turks has been
harsh, "Zaman" notes.
Iraqi Turkmen `Regret' Not Teaming Up With Kurds: Iraqi
Turkmen Front (ITF) chairman in Erbil, Abdulkadir Bezirgan,
said the ITF made a mistake by not entering into an alliance
with the Kurds in last month's election in Iraq,
"Cumhuriyet" and "Zaman" report. `We could have entered the
Iraqi parliament on a joint list with the Kurds, and split
to form our own group later,' Bezirgan said. He added that
a number of other Turkmen-based political groups had
cooperated with the Kurds and achieved a better result.
Bezirgan claimed that some 1 million votes cast by Turkmen
had `disappeared.'
Erdogan Names New Culture And Tourism Minister: PM Erdogan
on Monday named Atilla Koc, a 59-year-old former bureaucrat,
as Turkey's new culture and tourism minister to replace
Erkan Mumcu, who last week resigned from the AK Party.
Erdogan's unscheduled, two-hour meeting with President Sezer
led to speculation that a long-awaited cabinet reshuffle
might have been discussed, but Erdogan made no comment after
the meeting. The press speculates that Erdogan had proposed
to move State Minister Besir Atalay to the Ministry of
Education. Under the alleged plan, current Education
Minister Huseyin Celik would have become Minister of
tourism, and Koc would have been appointed as State Minister
to replace Atalay. President Sezer reportedly rejected the
formula. Meanwhile, Malatya deputy Suleyman Saribas, a
figure close to Mumcu, resigned from AKP yesterday. More
resignations will follow soon, papers report.
EDITORIAL OPINION: Transatlantic Relations
"US Uneasiness"
Melih Asik argued in the mass appeal "Milliyet" (2/22): "In
fact, the anti-Americanism level in Turkey is not much
different from that in France and Germany. The BBC opinion
poll rated anti-American sentiment at 82 percent in Turkey,
whereas Germany and France came in at 77 and 75 percent,
respectively. Despite the lack of a significant difference,
the US has chosen to `deal with' Turkey on this issue - not
with the others. Turkey has been placed under Washington's
psychological pressure. Obviously the US wants to put
Turkey in the dock in order to wring some concessions out of
this psychology - namely, the use of Incirlik Airbase. If
Turkey becomes influenced by these accusations and takes
side with the US, it would mean being a partner to new
massacres the US intends to carry out in Iran and Syria."
"President Bush's Holy Mission"
Uluc Gurkan wrote in the government-controlled,
sensationalist "Star" (2/22): "US President Bush believes he
has a holy mission to reshape the Islamic world in the
Middle East. He is on a mission from God, and to move it
forward he has to launch new strikes against Syria and Iran.
This is what he believes, but he does not know how to get it
done. . If Bush manages to persuade EU leaders in Brussels,
and if the EU identifies a common goal in the Middle East
and acts together with the US, Turkey will have to follow
suit. Turkey's position will mostly be shaped by the stance
of the EU, which could lead us into an open-ended adventure
in this region. Turkey should produce its own national
policies instead of listening to what the US is saying. By
creating a national policy, Turkey will be capable of
affecting both the US and the EU. Let us not forget how
Turkey managed to overcome the embargo following the 1974
military operation in Cyprus by sticking to its national
policy line."
"Turkish-American Relations Have Sunk Below the Level of
March 1"
Sedat Ergin observed in the mass appeal "Hurriyet" (2/22):
"Listening to Undersecretary Feith helps us to draw a
conclusion regarding the US view of Turkish-American ties.
Feith's logic is shaped by a judgment that insists that the
Turks are mistaken. He has a categorical view drawn in
black and white terms. This reflects the sentiment at the
Pentagon that the US side has done everything correctly.
Ankara, however, has lost trust over US actions, especially
concerning US policy for Iraq, which poses a security threat
to Turkey. There are unkept promises including President
Bush's commitment to work together with Turkey to prevent
northern Iraq becoming a haven for terrorist attacks against
Turkey. Northern Iraq is still a safehaven for the PKK and,
due to the increase in terrorist attacks in Turkey by the
PKK, the US suffers from a credibility gap here. . The US
also ignores the fact that Kurdish groups are working toward
changing Kirkuk's demographic character in a systematic way.
. The Bush administration continues to see the world through
blinders, and the result is a vicious circle in bilateral
ties. The increase in conspiracy theories against the US in
Turkey might stem from the growing mistrust of America among
the Turkish public. The US had better think about that."
"A Subconscious Act"
Okay Gonensin observed in the sensational-mass appeal Vatan
(2/22): "The Americans have become concerned about the anti-
American atmosphere in Turkey. US Secretary of State Rice
was sent to Turkey in order to ease this tension. Americans
have great faith in statistics. It is obvious that
Washington is taking into consideration recent poll results
showing that the percentage of Turks who are anti-American
is higher than elsewhere in Europe. The source of the anti-
Americanism in Turkey is, this time, Ankara. Top officials
of the AKP government, due to their past, have
subconsciously revealed their anti-Americana and anti-Jewish
feelings. This kind of obsession is fostered by the radical
right in Turkey. It has always been like this. The radical
left has always been anti-American as well, but has been
careful not to let that spill over into anti-Semitism. It
is one thing to criticize US policy in the Middle East. It
is a different thing entirely to be anti-American. The
same goes for Israel's policies in Palestine and anti-
Semitism. The difference here is not a nuance, but a basic
principle."
"Anti-Semitism"
Umur Talu wrote in the mass appeal "Sabah" (02/20): "So
`the world's most influential newspaper' has called me anti-
Semitic. But I'm not laughing this time - I'm angry. All I
wrote was that Ambassador Edelman had had a hand in writing
a report during the administration of George Bush Sr. that
advocated an interventionist US foreign policy supportive of
Israel. I asked the question whether the Ambassador's roots
may have played a role in this. I never mentioned
ethnicity, and certainly not Judaism, and yet I am accused
of being anti-Semitic. In fact, I have always supported the
civilian and military opposition in Israel. Jews have had a
tragic history, including being the victims of genocide.
There are some people - mostly in the Islamic world, but
also in the US and Europe - who see a Jewish conspiracy
behind every event. Douglas Feith, the Pentagon official who
warned Turkey over the weekend, is being forced to resign
because he wrote a report for the Israeli Prime Minister in
which he proposed an aggressive Israeli foreign policy line.
Did his roots play a role in this? May, maybe not. But
when a secret document leaks from his office to the Israeli
state, the question does come to mind. It was probably at
least one factor. Hardliners like Pollock and Ambassador
Edelman surely must understand this."
"Criticizing the United States, and Fooling Ourselves"
Yasemin Congar wrote from Washington in the mainstream
"Milliyet" (02/20): "There is a new report, published by
the New York University Faculty of Law and a group of
lawyers who defend clients at Guantanamo, that I would urge
all turks to read. It documents very persuasively that the
United States has legitimized the use of torture in the
Global War on Terrorism. This is a legitimate criticism on
one of the most important issues raised by the occupation of
Iraq. Criticism like this is not what is bothering US
officials who deal with Turkey. I cannot remember a single
US official, for example, who has ever complained about the
lack of action by the US on the PKK issue. What concerns US
officials is criticism in Turkey that is based on fantasy,
lies, paranoia, ideological blindness, and conspiracy
theories. This is different from what we see in Europe, or
even in the Arab world. When political leaders produce
phony US Government documents and claim there is a CIA plot
against them, when writers accuse the CIA and Mossad of
responsibility in the 9/11 attacks and the assassination of
the former Lebanese Prime Minister, when journalists believe
unquestioningly everything that is told to them by Turkmen
groups about Kirkuk and northern raq, when Turkish generals
accuse US forces in the murder of 5 Turkish security
personnel in Mosul with no evidence, when politicians
describe operations in Tal Afar and Fallujah as `genocide,'
when Turks speculate about who may or may not be Jewish
based on their surnames, and when our politicians call into
question the legitimacy of the Iraq elections while the UN
Secretary General and other world leaders say they could be
SIPDIS
a hopeful turning point for Iraq - these are the kinds of
things that have brought us to this point. This kind of
anti-Americanism does more harm to Turkey than anyone else.
Do we even see this picture?"
"Robert Pollock's Column"
Kursat Bumin wrote in the Islamist daily "Yeni Safak"
(02/20): " Let me be clear: there is plenty in current US
foreign policy (let alone the past) that deserves to be
criticized mercilessly. I am not recalling the points that
Pollock made because I agree with his article. But we need
to accept that some of the points he makes are not
completely over the top. Some of what he wrote - that the
AKP is sneaking Islamism into Turkish politics - is more
than over the top. But Pollock is correct when he talks
about some in Turkey who try to attribute everything
(including the recent tsunami) to the United States, or on
US support for the `Jewish agenda.' His observations about
Turkey seeing a conspiracy behing the use of the term
`ecumenical Patriarch' is also on the mark. So Pollock's
column is essentially a blend of facts and some wrong-headed
analysis. The fact that he identified our newspaper as one
of the chief offenders is also not surprising. I have been
told by US officials, albeit in more polite and refined
terms, that "Yeni Safak" is regarded as an anti-American
paper. My main point is this: there is plenty of legitimate
criticism of the United States - for its ridiculous claim
that it is bringing democracy to Afghanistan and Iraq, for
its irresponsibility as a superpower to sign the Kyoto
Protocol, and a number of other things. These criticisms
are seen elsewhere as well, including in Europe. But this
criticism takes on a different dimension here. In fact, we
need to pay attention to this - we seem just as angry in our
criticisms of the European Union! Is Ismet Berkan right?
Have we really become a society of paranoids?"
