The World is immense compared to any Country, yours included. What Türkiye needs is a proper leader, then it doesn't matter nearly as much what power centres are forming.
Of course. Well I have two countries: India and Canada.
The stresses on Canada (basically subsumed into American one with some nominal British inertia) long played its thing since war of 1812....given the relative pop density of Canada and proxmity of 90% of it to the US, long border with the States on same continent (and vertical logistics with them compared to horizontal across Canada) and then the sheer power disparity in the 20th century reflected in immediate population terms today by about 10 times in US favour.
India is different context and size. Rawer earlier stage of development to Canada, less integrated in intensity....and a significant counter-force to all neighbours and world population outside it....china being the only 1:1 neighbourwise....and even the world enjoys maybe 6:1....when bulk of countries see ratios well in the 50:1, 100: 1 and even more etc.
Turkish one lies between the two...and then we factor in the history, sociology and geography too.
Now I have long said its overdue for another Ataturk in Turkish context today. But the situation is also different, the crucible to gestate and produce an Ataturk is different now....simply by where Turkiye has marched and developed since he staked out the republic that secured these opportunities in the first place.
So Turkish population must be cognisant to this, it is that simple. To say apply pressure on its political gentry to select say Mansur Yavas and not Kilicdaroglu to take on Erdogan/AKP.
To have its social conservatives not have AKP go down any islamism route to begin with....its easier said than done of course, these things weigh deep in social conservatives everywhere in world to begin with.
This is only way to produce process with cards you already have in your hands, rather than rely on some miracle drop or manna from heaven leadership wise.....because there are all kind of competing forces in people heads now that has coloured all politics involved these days.
The dog cannot be wagged by its tail. Turkish people must realise this. They are 90 million in end, so the pressures of the other 8 billion in the world is a larger disparity to one India faces. When it comes to religion itself to begin with, it is significant factor for Turkiye if its not careful as most Muslims live outside Turkiye and are not Turks. Simply not the case with India and Hinduism. So the basic stress from outside in vis a vis Islamist and Hindutva are quite different for Turkiye and India in that sense.
