Ömer Çelik called social media companies the source of digital fascism and digital dictatorship, saying the platforms pose a threat to the country’s sovereignty.
The reason? 👇2⃣3⃣4⃣

Following @BAUDEGS I have experienced hateful and propagandist tweets time after time. I have been shocked that an academic community would be so reckless with their publications. So I did some research.
The question is:
Is this an official account for Bahcesehir Uni (Bau)?
Bahcesehir Uni, BAU has an official website bau.edu.tr which links to their social media, leading to their Twitter account @Bahcesehir
BAU’s official Twitter account

“Turkey has always done its own thing: “rejection of subjugation to the West has long been the bedrock of Turkish politics, whether its leadership was religious or secular, leftist or rightwing.”
“🇹🇷launched a brisk charm offensive with the EU and the new 🇺🇸president. A case in point was Erdoğan’s speech on 22.11.2020, in which he said, “We see ourselves as an inseparable part of 🇪🇺. We have always been the strongest member of Western Alliances, NATO in particular.”
“🇹🇷leadership is prone to repeatedly adjusting its foreign policy narratives to suit domestic political requirements. This creates massive foreign policy uncertainty for Ankara’s 🇪🇺 and 🇺🇸partners because🇹🇷 simultaneously plays friend and foe or acts both with and against NATO.”

@AdonisGeorgiadi κ. Υπουργέ ίσως ήρθε η ώρα να εξετάσετε τα μέτρα λοκ νταουν να μην είναι καθολικά σε όλη την χώρα. Η αγορά και κάποιες δραστηριότητες μπορούν να είναι ανοιχτές στις περιοχές που δεν είναι επιβαρυμένες.
Ουτε η οικονομία του πολιτη, ούτε της χώρας μπορούν να το αντέξουν. Ίσως να πρέπει να δείτε τα σύνορα, μιας και η μετάλλαξη ήρθε στη χώρα, και τωρα ζημιώνει όλο τον κόπο κ την θυσία που έχει γίνει και στην οικονομία.
Επίσης, αν δουλέψετε με ένα μοντέλο «Οσοι προσέχουν, θα έχουν» ίσως να δώσει κι ένα κίνητρο σε δήμους να τρέξουν τους πολίτες τους, κ οι πολίτες οι ίδιοι να μπουν στο κλίμα, ότι αν είναι πλημμύρα στην Ερμού, αυτοί θα στερηθούν, ενώ κάπου αλλου θα δουλεύουν. Γιατί καθολικά?

The revelation that her husband consulted for an Azeri company might prove awkward for Mitrev’s wife, Irina Bokova, who is the director general of Unesco. Bokova has bestowed one of Unesco’s highest honours, the Mozart Medal on Azerbaijan’s first lady and vice-president

Διπλωματική ήττα της Τουρκίας εντός του ΟΗΕ 🧵 in English philenews.com/eidiseis/polit…
🇹🇷 attempted to put a formal procedure to a vote in the United Nations and in the end only succeeded in isolating itself as no state followed it in challenging the Convention on the Law of the Sea. The resolution reiterates the universality of the Convention on the Law of the Sea
The openings that Turkey has been making in recent years, in various directions, aim, among other things, at the country gaining a strong foothold in international fora, such as the United Nations.
