Writer Musa Uzogurlu, in an article titled “The Great Sorrow in Brotherhood Love” in Gazette Dwar, says that under every stone of Turkey’s foreign policy, the Muslim Brotherhood emerges. These have become one of the most important determinants of Turkey’s foreign policy. But he wonders if the reason for the close rapprochement with the “Brotherhood” is their importance to Turkey, or if Turkey is simply using them as a means for Turkish aspirations. He says both sides have evidence to support his leadership, but whatever the reason, the “Brotherhood” organization has in practice become the center of causes that sabotaged Turkey’s foreign relations. Ozogurlu says Egypt’s demand to Turkey is clear, which is to end its support for the “Brotherhood”. In Turkey, many Brotherhood leaders reside, and in Turkey many Brotherhood television stations hostile to the Egyptian regime are broadcasting. They are all angering and annoying the Egyptian regime. Later, the Libyan problem appeared, when Cairo saw the “Brotherhood” in Libya as a potential threat to the internal stability of Egypt, and Turkey supported the Brotherhood-inclined government. The same applies to Saudi Arabia.
The writer says that many reasons can be considered for the failure of relations between the two parties, but one of the most important of these reasons is the Turkish embrace of the organization “Brotherhood”. Regarding the issue of the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, questions were raised about the reason for his presence in Turkey and under the protection of the “Justice and Development” authority, and he was considered an anti-Saudi journalist who was murdered in Istanbul. without linking him to the “Brotherhood”. Likewise, relations with the United Arab Emirates, which are waging a relentless war against the Turkish-backed “Brotherhood”, and Qatar supports from the same angle, which led to the sabotage of relations between the UAE and Turkey.
Ozogurlu says that the second country, after Turkey, in the region that comprises the “Brotherhood” is Iran. They have good relations with the “Muslim Brotherhood” in the face of the Saudi “common enemy”. With the rise of Abdel Fattah al-Sisi to power, Egyptian-Iranian relations deteriorated due to the “Brotherhood”. Furthermore, one of the factors of rapprochement between Shiite Iran and the Sunni “Muslim Brotherhood” is the common hostility towards Israel, as “Hamas” is the Palestinian version of the Muslim Brotherhood. As for Libya, the affiliation of the Libyan Minister of the Interior, Fathi Bash Agha, who is the Brotherhood, has created problems even within the Sarraj government. In events related to Libya, reference will always be made to Turkey’s relationship with the “Brotherhood”. The writer concludes with his questions about whether Turkey is in the process of abandoning the “Muslim Brotherhood” element in its foreign policies, a factor that has sabotaged all of Turkey’s foreign relations, and asks why Ankara insists on making the wrong investment. in the future through the organization “Brotherhood”.
It is unrealistic to expect a sharp turn in Turkish-Egyptian relations
In the same context, the specialist in foreign affairs, Erol Manisali, asks in the Cumhuriyet newspaper, what is the reason for the failure of Turkey’s foreign relations with all countries? Manisali says that, with the exception of “puppet Qatar”, Turkey has been at enmity with the entire Arab world. Relations with Syria, after being a field of roses and flowers, were broken due to Turkey’s support for the “Brotherhood” and the Islamic militants known as “jihadists”. America was pleased with this situation. The scenario was repeated with Egypt because of the “Brotherhood”. And in Libya, Ankara sided without justification for one side in internal conflicts, and the United States was again pleased. Manisali believes that the practices of the “Justice and Development” Party have changed the borders and structures of the Arab countries and destroyed them. The irony is that the “Justice and Development” party, in trying to support Islamic tendencies in the “Arab Spring” countries, was moving away from the democratic and contemporary values of the Republic of Turkey and defending the ideologies of the Middle East. . Turkey has become a country that seeks equality between men and women, secularism and civic values. Manesali wonders if he made a mistake in the “justice and development” calculations or is he doing it while he is aware of all the consequences? Manisali ends by saying that whenever political Islam set foot in the lands of Anatolia, cooperation with imperialism was, and the example of Fethullah Gulen was the latest example of this.
Sadat Argen had written a few days ago in the pro-Hurriyet newspaper that the secret meetings between the Egyptian and Turkish intelligence services were taking place, and it was about the situation in Libya and other issues. Ergen says this is similar to the meetings that Turkish intelligence chief Haqan Fidan has with his Syrian counterpart Ali Mamlouk. Whereas, when roads are blocked for political leaders, intelligence lines must remain open. Ergen believes that Turkey’s messages to Egypt have not been interrupted, including Turkish presidential spokesman Ibrahim Kalin’s consideration, some time ago, that Egypt could play a constructive role in Libya and in any other country, including Qatar. Ergen ends his article by saying that it is unrealistic to expect a sharp turn in Turkish-Egyptian relations, but not cutting all the threads and engaging in a highly controlled dialogue would be beneficial for both countries.
