"EU will suspend negotiations if AKP is shut down
Wednesday, April 16, 2008
Mehmet Ali Birand
The scenario is already being written.
Furthermore, the European Union is not acting out of a bent objective to help Turkey turn into a religious state bound by Islamic Law, so that it gives up full EU membership. Regardless of whether we like and accept it or not, they don't believe that the AKP has a secret agenda. What they believe is that in a democratic regime, it should not be so easy to close down a political party that was brought to power by 47 percent of the electors. European public opinion generally believes that the AKP is to be subjected to a judiciary coup in preparation. "

"Turkish hopes
April 19, 2008 ·
From the Ovi magazine
Perhaps all these, often difficult to understand, actions of the Turkish establishment and their army will be proved constructive for Turkey's future one day. Turkey today, whether they want to admit it or not, is somehow the continuation of the Ottoman Empire and this is natural. One of the strong points of this period was the complicated but capable bureaucracy that gradually became a ruling factor for the empire. Very cleverly, Kemal, the founder of Turkey as we know her today, kept this establishment and made it part of the new Turkish democracy."

"On the EU: No words, deeds please!
Saturday, April 19, 2008
CENGİZ AKTAR
The government keeps sending strong signals on resuming EU works that have been neglected since Dec. 17, 2004. Renewed EU love is largely triggered by the closure case against the ruling party. It seems one evil is better than 1,000 pieces of advice but no problem. This time, however, things will be much tougher."
