Political Science and International Relations Expert Prof. Dr. Süleyman Seyfi Öğün, on the second day of our interview; He evaluated the risks awaiting Turkey in Syria, the Middle East and Eurasia geopolitics. Making important statements, Prof. Dr. While Öğün continued to shed light on Britain’s plans in the region, he also touched upon the road map of Trump, who was elected president of the USA for the second time.
-How does England position Turkey in its plans in Syria and the Middle East?
Prof. Dr. Meal: “All England’s efforts are to sabotage the relations and energy lines established between Eurasia and Europe during the Cold War. The British desperately want Russia to disintegrate. Within the scope of this strategy, they want to establish order in the Middle East and manage Europe’s energy deficit under their own control.” they desire. The British somehow know that Turkey must also be in the game. The USA does not have as deep a Middle East policy as the UK. The strategy of turning to China has been the main goal since the Obama era. Without Israel’s existence and security; “The USA will be completely out of the Middle East.”
-Will the terrorist organization continue to exist in the east of the Euphrates?
Prof. Dr. Meal: “Our expectation in Syria is to ensure ‘peace’. We want the terrorist organization PKK/YPG in the east of the Euphrates to be largely liquidated and dissolved within the unitary structure of Syria. Ahmet al-Shara does not want a structure similar to cantons. Our wish is that the new army to be established in Syria be the army of a unitary structure. “It is unacceptable for the PKK to act as autonomous units affiliated with the centre.”
-I would like to ask a little bit about the 2nd Trump era. 2.What could be the risks for Türkiye during the Trump era?
Prof. Dr. Meal: “Former British Foreign Minister David Cameron had a long meeting with Trump before the US elections. Cameron tried to measure and evaluate Trump. If Trump says ‘we will change the maps’, this will be the beginning of a troubled process for both Turkey and Iran. Such In one situation, the British can change the game instantly. They may want to put Turkey into war with Iran or Israel. I do not see Iran’s recent anti-Türkiye statements as a good sign. The Turkish Army is powerful enough to bring the armies of these two states to their knees, but in case of a possible war, what is going on in the backyard? “That’s a big question mark.”
-Where do you think the fault lines of the coming period will be?
Prof. Dr. Meal: “In the coming period, our critical fault lines will be Cyprus, Iran, Libya and the Caucasus. The British control Gibraltar and Malta; Cyprus is included in this chain and completes Britain’s dominance in the Mediterranean. The increased US military presence on the island means a lot The USA is not a penetrating power on the island. There are enormous energy resources in the Eastern Mediterranean. “Cyprus may become a new area of tension and conflict.”
-Tension is also increasing in Asia. Will the Afghanistan-Pakistan conflict grow?
Prof. Dr. Meal: “China made 3 major attacks in this region. Pakistan’s agreement with China for the Gwadar Port was very critical. When Pakistan started to enter China’s sphere of influence, Imran Khan was overthrown. China made its second move through Iran and the oil exchange with Iran was expanded. Third The move was to seek an agreement between Iran and Saudi Arabia. of Pakistan; In addition to Afghanistan, war with India or Iran may also be on the agenda. “In the Anglo-American core’s strategy to contain China, we may see serious turmoil and conflicts in Pakistan.”
