Usual fucking Umtards in the comments crying about Ataturk.
"He destroyed the Caliphate!"
Have these morons ever opened a history book and realized that the reason that the Caliphate was abolished was because nobody wanted to f**king lead it? By the time Ataturk established the Republic, it was a purely ceremonial position with even less power than a random Catholic bishop that nobody in the wider Muslim world listened to. But who am I kidding, those aren't real accounts, they are just bots or likely trolls on foreign payroll. Likely Gulf monarchs and their masters who really, really want the Gulf tyrants to be the central "authority" on Sunni Islam worldwide.
this is an excuse arab nationalist created to shit on Ataturk ! since few Turks know arabic very few people can go and search their archive to see what happend in the otherside ! let me Enlighten everyone here ! when caliphate was still standing arabs didnt listen to the caliph and even under Ottoman rule they kept killing each other for hundreds of years ! Ottomans didnt have a solid grasp over arab lands until mahmud ii centralised the power. There was also an arabic news paper in Egypt at the time when caliphate abolished, it wrote in it's first page that finally there is 1 thing muslim world agree on and united that is abolishment of caliphate ! !"He destroyed the Caliphate!"

Is there an official statement?
Cucks. Also it would have been EU pressure that forced their hands. For the benefit of trade with the EU they made them humiliate themselves. If the EU had the power to destroy Turkiye, it would.
I don't think this is just for trade. They're trying to distance themselves from AKPs influence. I bet some really ugly things have happened behind closed doors.

It's sad that it has gotten to this point, especially as the OTS was founded by Kazakhstan for the Turkic World's unity. Right now Türkiye is behaving the same way Pakistan was in the 90s, trying to Islamize the Turkic nations. In fact, the US employed Türkiye to do the same against Arab nations in the cold war (AKP are remnants of this), but it all started with the good friend KSA.
Put your seatbelts on, gonna be a really bumpy few years of foreign policy nightmares under Fidan, the same guy who was the head of MİT when we had a coup attempt and had countless terror attacks.
Fucking shame.
Now we have a bunch of non-Turks celebrating that a our ethnic Kurdish foreign minister has fucked up relations with the Turkic countries. Meanwhile he advocates peace with PKK. What a joke.
Meanwhile Binali Yildirim is the "Aksakal" of the OTS
I'm just going to stop talking about this government, the problem is obvious. If you choose to ignore it you've already picked your side.
The Turkic Stans are doing just fine, apart from Turkmenistan, our version of North Korea. Türkiye is the key to everything and their launchpad into the wider world. Stans need Türkiye to survive, but they're not a burden.It's not just because of AKP and Islamism the Stans were always going to do this Kazakhstan has been letting the Chinese government kidnap Uyghurs and ethnic Kazaks alike, while Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan are doing nothing to help the Uzbek and Turkmen who are suffering at the hands of the Pashtuns.
People treat this as some great defeat, but the truth is that the stans might not even be around in a hundred years as both climate change and artificial disasters are going to destabilise the region greatly.
Russia is already planning on annexing parts of Kazakstan, and the US will most likely support it as they will see it as a way to flip Russia against China, while the Europeans will do nothing hell; some may support it as they did with Armenia. The rivers that Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan rely on are being diverted by the Taliban. That is part of why they are targeting the local Turkic population.
The only good thing about those countries is that they can be a source of Turkic people to help fight against Turkey's aging population. Other than that, they are worthless countries that are doomed.
Yes, they need Turkey, and yes, AKP is also to blame for being shit at foreign policy, but there is no future for them long term. That is why I'm not too surprised with the outcome. Turkey shouldn't expect much from them. It should only use them for its national interest and siphon off the stan's growing population.The Turkic Stans are doing just fine, apart from Turkmenistan, our version of North Korea. Türkiye is the key to everything and their launchpad into the wider world. Stans need Türkiye to survive, but they're not a burden.
The Stans were looking up to Türkiye several years ago. After the 2020 Azerbaijan-Armenia war, the entire Turkic world was proud and everybody held their heads high. Türkiye's drones and Azerbaijan's fight inspired everyone from the western edge of the Turkic world to the Sakhas in Siberia.
Optimism was in the air and everything was going well until AKP changed its image for the 5th(?) time, leaving Turkish nationalism and pan-Turkism, back to Islamism and cooperation with PKK to get Kurdish votes.
This has had dire consequences. This isn't just a cosmetic change, they've done a complete 180. The shuffling of the cabinet may have something to do with this.
It is sad, but it is an expected outcome. Turkiye doesn't have the economic capacity to lead a Turkic organization. Military capacity is also a big question mark. I believe Central Asian Turkic states did the right thing. They gained independence recently, they are rediscovering their national identity. 30 years ago speaking Russian was a privilege and speaking any Turkic language was shunned. They were dirt poor and only slightly improved in this time frame. Their population is low compared to their countries sizes. They need to tackle down those problems first before any Turkic entity can take place. They also know Russia will come for them after the Ukraine. Their realistic options are China, which will enslave them in a different manner, and the EU. Unfortunately, Turkiye is not a realistic option in the near to mid-term.
Turkiye will also gain a lot from this as energy and trade routes passes from Turkiye. Right now EU and Turkiye are trying to come together under EU security infrastructure.
They should get the EU money, grow their economy, increase their industrial capacity, create dependencies with the EU like energy, natural minerals etc. so that they can later use them as bargaining chips. They should continue reforms like adopting the Latin alphabet and strengthening national identity. Once EU gives money and those complex relations are established EU can't take spent money back and annul everything but those countries can change their official attitude against TRNC in the future. Azerbaijan is different though. Once the issue with Armenia is resolved, Azerbaijan can fully recognize TRNC. Azerbaijan is already in an advanced level relationship with TRNC, and it is just shy of official recognition.
I said this in the past, and I'm saying it again now. Some kind of EU like Turkic Union is at least 50 years ahead. Until we are strong enough to protect Turkic states from Russian aggression and provide an alternative for EU investments.
