Europol says Turks involved with the most threatening criminal networks in Europe - Nordic Monitor

Quick Glance: Europol's Insights on Turkish Criminal Networks in Europe

A Europol report confirms that under President Erdogan, Turkey has become a hub for criminal syndicates posing a serious threat to European security.

Turkish criminal networks extend across the Western Balkans, engaging in fraudulent schemes and arms trafficking, with Turkey being highlighted as a key location for online fraud systems.

Turkey plays a key role in illegal firearms trafficking into Europe and exports weapons to conflict zones in the Middle East and Africa.

Despite pressure from FATF, Turkey remains on the grey list and has intensified operations against criminal networks in the last 10 months, resulting in the arrest of hundreds of suspects.

nzz.ch/meinung/erdogan-darf-der-hamas-nicht-den-roten-teppich-ausrollen-ld.1827403

Quick Glance: Turkey Should Not Provide Sanctuary to Hamas

The images of the meeting between the Turkish President and the Hamas leader in Istanbul are causing unease. Supporting the terrorist organization is problematic. The Islamists are no longer suitable as negotiating partners for resolving the Middle East conflict.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan received Hamas leader Ismail Haniya with a certain statesmanship and drew parallels between Hamas and Turkish insurgents. Turkey adamantly refuses to categorize Hamas as a terrorist organization.

Speculations are arising about a potential relocation of Hamas leaders from Qatar to Turkey. Qatar is under pressure due to its closeness to Islamists. Turkey could be an appealing choice for Hamas.

Moving the Hamas headquarters to Turkey would be a provocation towards Israel and its allies. Hamas has discredited itself as a reliable negotiating partner. A political resolution of the Middle East conflict should exclude the involvement of Hamas.

Nearly 282 million people faced acute hunger in 2023, with the worst famine in Gaza - World News

hurriyetdailynews.com/nearly-282-million-people-faced-acute-hunger-in-2023-report-192799

Quick Glance: Over 280 Million People Worldwide Affected by Severe Hunger

Nearly 282 million individuals across various countries faced acute hunger in 2023, with the war-torn Gaza Strip having the highest number of people experiencing famine.

The United Nations report revealed that 24 million more people were dealing with acute food shortages compared to 2022, primarily due to a significant decline in food security, especially in Gaza and Sudan.

Of those on the brink of famine - 577,000 individuals - over 80% were located in Gaza, while numerous others in nations like South Sudan, Burkina Faso, Somalia, and Mali were also enduring extreme hunger.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres labeled the report as 'a reckoning of human failure' and emphasized the need for an urgent response to address the root causes of acute hunger and malnutrition, as well as overhaul food supply systems.

Western states sought to send de-escalation messages to Iran via Turkey, Western diplomat says

reut.rs/3xJYOKR

Quick Glance: Western States Utilize Turkey as Intermediary for De-escalation Messages to Iran: Diplomat

Recently, Western states have attempted to communicate messages to Iran via Turkey to reaffirm calls for de-escalation, as reported by a Western diplomat on Friday.

These messages were transmitted before the reported Israeli attacks on Iran early Friday, resulting in Tehran stating it had no intentions for additional retaliation.

Following Iran's retaliatory strike on Israel over the weekend, Turkey's foreign ministry acknowledged engagements with Iran and the United States, emphasizing the need for restraint and cautioning against a potential regional conflict with further escalating tensions.

Acting US Under Secretary of State John Bass visited Ankara earlier this week and held discussions with Turkey's top diplomat Hakan Fidan. A US official mentioned: 'They deliberated on the crucial importance of averting additional escalations or a broader conflict in the region.'

Quick Glance: Turkey: New Foreign Policy as Opportunity for EU and West

Erdogan shifts towards a more conciliatory foreign policy and re-engages with the West. Europe should support this reorientation as Turkey remains a key player in the region.

Turkey recently ratified Sweden's NATO membership and was rewarded with the promise of new fighter jets from the US Congress.

Turkey aims for relaxation in relations with Greece and in the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia. However, the reliability of this new harmony remains uncertain.

Turkey relies heavily on the EU economically and seeks a new customs agreement. Its flexible approach in foreign policy is evident, especially in the Middle East and North Africa.

Quick Glance: Iran Warned Before Attacking Israel, US Denies Notice

Iran provided wide notice before its drone and missile attack on Israel, as stated by Turkish, Jordanian, and Iraqi officials. However, the US refuted receiving any warning and suggested that the attack intended significant damage.

On Saturday, Iran launched numerous drones and missiles in retaliation for a suspected Israeli strike on its embassy in Syria.

Despite most drones and missiles being intercepted, a young girl sustained critical injuries, sparking concerns of further escalation.

US officials revealed that Iran only communicated after the strikes began, aiming for a 'highly destructive' outcome. The potential for escalation remains uncertain as the US declared it would not engage in Israeli retaliation against Iran.
