Approved by Turkish National Assembly demands Tayyip Erdogan in order for the neighbor’s armed forces to act in point and time where will determines himselfreveals the independent news network Nordic Monitor, of the self-exiled Turkish journalist in Sweden Abdullah Bozkurt.
As the network points out, Mr. Erdogan’s decision to ask for the “free” by Parliament to The army “hits” where the president wantsmay be made on the occasion of the request for approval extension of their presence Turkish forces in Libya for an additional 18 months, however it does not only cover that territory.
During Nordic Monitor “In the final paragraph of the request, the Turkish president seeks parliament ‘s approval for sending Turkish troops in foreign countries for operations and interventions, in order to effectively protect the interests of Turkey and to help pursue a dynamic policy to avoid dealing with a situation that cannot be remedied subsequently, adding that the scope of operations, the number of troops and the time they will be deployed will be determined by him “. He added: “The use of the word ‘countries’ instead of ‘Libya’ as a country to which troops will be sent, allows Erdogan to send troops to any destination he deems necessary, on the grounds of protecting Turkey’s interests.”
In fact, the independent network cites as an example that Mr. Erdogan, in the context of the new decision of the Turkish National Assembly may take action against another country (eg Greece) claiming that “there is a violation in the Eastern Mediterranean regarding the implementation of Turkey-Libya Maritime Border Demarcation Agreement signed in 2019 “. It should be noted that this is a maritime agreement establishing a common continental shelf and an Exclusive Economic Zone between Turkey and Libya, which is not recognized by any Mediterranean country.
The Nordic Monitor also notes that “Erdogan said last week that Greece militarized some islands in the Aegean contrary to international agreements, saying that “Turkey can intervene and it is not a joke”.
“Political observers believe that before next year’s presidential election, Erdogan will want to take advantage of the wave of neo-nationalism at home and that a cross-border military operation against the Kurds in Syria has been put on the agenda.”
It is not yet known exactly when the Turkish National Assembly will vote at Erdogan’s request, however, it is considered certain that will be voted in favoras the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) and Devlet Bahceli’s Nationalist Movement Party have the necessary majority.
