"NEW DOCTRINE" IN ANKARA
The upcoming fundamental changes in Central Asia (including
Afghanistan) have an effect of intrigue on Turkey which is generally
perceived to have failed its doctrine of neo-Ottomanism and is in
the quest for an alternative doctrine though Neo-Ottomanism is an
alternative to Pan-Turkism.
Tens of European and American political scientists with tight links to
research programs funded by Turkey have been working hard to prove that
Pan-Turkism is a myth and invention and nothing of the kind exists. In
fact, it became known in the course of time that Pan-Turkism is a
pro-Russian rather than Turkish doctrine because most Turkic states
and nations have been swimming in the channel of the Russian policy
(since the 16th century).
Recently the same political scientists have been trying to prove
at all kinds of forums that Neo-Ottomanism is an ethno-cultural,
not a political doctrine. This time this doctrine collapsed from the
latent strikes by the states of the Western community with the help
of Arab states.
The Western political scientists continue to get grants and high fees
but their ideas and assessments already do not interest anyone. Civil
expertise as such is dying in the West under the influence of several
reasons but manipulations of the pro-Turkish "team" did play a role.
In tough discomfort, hopeless, waiting for the economic crisis and
having found their "Vietnam" in Syria, the Turkish leaders are seeking
ideas for a new acceptable doctrine, more or less realistic in terms
of their economic and political capacity. The United States has already
proposed that Turkey let the Near East go and "return" to Central Asia.
After NATO's withdrawal from Afghanistan Turkey will suffer a
nightmare in the region, if not a political catastrophe. It means
that as a competitor to Russia and China Turkey will undergo strikes
by radicals which mostly belong to the Iranian civilization.
Refraining from public speeches, some European experts of Turkish
origin are trying to warn Ankara about the maturing catastrophe due
to the intentions to "return" to Central Asia. For example, one of
these liberal experts argues that a team of politicians, journalists
and political scientists has been set up in Turkey which obviously
carries out foreign orders and pushes the country to make mistakes.
In fact, it turns out that Turkish expansionism has run into deadlocks
in all directions. Turkey always "returns" to previous doctrines and
ideas but earlier it happened once in ten years whereas in the 21st
century it has to "return" in maximum ten years. This is the main
sign of the geopolitical deadlock.
