Patrikhane önünde protesto (from CNN Türk)



"Darbelere Karşı 70 Milyon Adım Koalisyonu" adlı grup, Fener Rum Patrikhanesi önünde eylem yaptı. Yaklaşık 20 kişilik grup, üzerinde Türkçe ve Rumca "Bütün halklar kardeştir" yazılı pankartlar taşıdı.


Grup adına açıklama yapan Yıldız Önen, "Bu devirden sonra darbe olmaz demeyi isterdik. Sırlar odasına girildi diye heyecanlananlara Narry Poterromanı okurken için geçmiş, üstün açık kalmış olmalı diyerek diye takılmak isterdik. Koç Müzesi'ndeki denizaltıda bulunan bomba 300 çocuğu öldürmek için orada unutuldu haberlerine o kadar da değil diye tepki göstermek isterdik. Ama diyemiyoruz. Kendimizi rahat hissetmiyoruz" dedi.

Önen, "Darbe Günlükleri'nin kurmaca, ıslak imzanın sahte olduğuna inanmak isterdik. Ergenekon'un, muhalifleri sindirmeye çalışmaktan başka bir şey olmadığına ikna olmak isterdik ama diyemiyoruz, gülüp geçemiyoruz. Kendimizi rahat hissetmiyoruz. Hiç kimse patrikhaneye, Bartholomeos'a dokunamayacaktır. Biz buna izin vermeyeceğiz. Biz özgürlük, tüm ezilenler, tüm dini gruplar, tüm azınlıklar, tüm diller ve siyasi görüşler için özgürlük istiyoruz. Rum kardeşlerimizin içi rahat etsin. Biz varız, halkların kardeşliği var" diye konuştu

Cyprus Spring?

Back in February, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davuto ğ lu met Greek Cypriot academics  and representatives of civil society in Ankara to discuss developments and prospects of the Cyprus issue. And only a few days ago, journalists from Alithia, Politis and the Cyprus Mail, former Cyprus-EU chief negotiator Takis Hadjidemetriou and United Democrats leader Praxoulla Antoniadou Kyriacou, as well as a number of Turkish Cypriot journalists, met Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdo ğ an and EU Minister Egemen  Bağış in Istanbul. This is the closest to what one could call track II encounter and exchange process between the two countries and, as such, it should not be underestimated. Apart from the novelty of this unprecedented activity involving, amongst others, the Turkish Prime Minister addressing Greek Cypriots, one could not but notice the messages that he and his colleagues conveyed. Erdo ğ an reportedly stressed his view that time is right for a solution as the two...

A grim anniversary

Yesterday, air raid sirens could be heard all over Serbia to commemorate the NATO bombing of the country that led to the de facto end of Serbian rule in Kosovo ten years ago. The anniversary was a tense occasion that confirms the volatility of Serbian politics but also the fragility of the country's current European orientation. Politicians of almost all hues invariably denounced the raids, and Prime Minister Mirko Cvetkovic branded them "an illegal act" and added that "Serbia cannot forget those tragic days." Public rituals that reproduce a sense of collective trauma such as a special cabinet session, visits and "pilgrimages" to bombing sites, remembrance activities at schools were held countrywide for yet one more year but only a heavily policed rally in central Belgrade was organized by hard-line nationalists and the hardliners were largely contained. And although Serbian President Boris Tadic called the bombing a "tragic" event that acc...

Тиха вода брег рони

"As a future NATO member and as a country that is very close to EU membership, Croatia will give full support to its neighbours" Ivo Sanader, Croatian Prime Minister Last week, in a rather brief statement, Croatia's Prime Minister effectively pledged to support Serbia's bid to join the European Union and other European institutions. Given the bitter and turbulent relationship between Croatia and Serbia over the past couple of decades this extension of a friendly hand towards the latter was, for many, surprising. There is a lot that has been dividing the two countries: the bitter memory of the war of Croatia's independence, the mass exodu s of the Serbs of the Krajina, the still outst anding suit -originally filed by Croatia in 1999 - against Serbia for genocide before the International Court of Justice and the public disapproval within Serbia of Croatia's recognition of the independence of Kosovo in 2008. And although Croatia's own EU bid has been delayed ...
