“BATI’NIN BİZİ ANLAMASI İÇİN KENDİMİZİ ANLATMAMIZ LAZIM”

Dr. Aydın;” We should express ourselves well to Western countries”

“We Should Express Ourselves Well to Western Countries”
 
Established eight years ago to improve the quality of higher education in Eurasia, EURAS Chairman and IAU President Dr. Mustafa Aydın said, ” First and foremost, we should express ourselves well to Western countries for them to understand us. We have especially selected foreign speakers for this panel. Because we wanted to see their ideas and thoughts about July 15 coup attempt. Large number of academics have already expressed that western countries biased against us, and were far away from understanding Turkish people’s democratic stance against 15 July coup attempt. Therefore, we should organize more events in different platforms and explain the reason behind July 15 coup attempt. We can’t get anywhere by sitting here and getting upset. We can’t explain, they will never understand us.
 
“The reaction of EU was not enough”
 
Conference moderator Dean of Faculty of Economic and Administrative Sciences Prof. Dr. Celal Nazım İrem expressed that “we have agreed on “inefficacy of EU reaction”. EU were careless at the beginning. They have tried to predict the results first. They have pretended like nothing happened that night and they have cared about the impact of the coup attempt than 15 July coup attempt. Actually Turkey and EU strongly bind each other in different ways. EU needs a process to recover its weak attitude. This process is only be active if parties can remember their responsibilities and dependence against each other.”
During the conference, Turkey’s key role was also assessed. Speakers have touched on both Turkey’s energy policies and its neighbor’s political crises and its impact to Turkey. As a result, the panel was ended with the result that there is no other way except improving democracy.
 
At the end of the conference, Dr. Mustafa Aydın have given plagues to the speakers. The video about 15 July coup attempt which was prepared by IAU Music club had took the attention of the audience.

LAW IS LIKE AN OXYGEN
 
TBMM (Turkish Parliament)’s former spokesperson Cemil Cicek said, “” There are many definitions of politics but the best I heard from a villager ‘The main thing is to button up the first button right.’ This is the right definition of politics. If one third of a country’s economy is unrecorded, this can’t happen without politics. Then the politics of that country is unrecorded too. There are many definitions of unrecorded politics. In summary, we can say that involvement of the people and establishments with no politics background in politics. We have judicial, armed forces, capital and media outlets and social groups that define unrecorded politics in Turkey. Coups, closures of political parties, 367-decisions and finally July 15th coup attempt are all a production of unrecorded politics. Moreover, ‘there is always a way’ defines unrecorded politics in Turkey as well.””
