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.

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.

Quick Glance: Disappointing Q1 Economic Growth and Implications
- The U.S. GDP grew at a rate of 1.6% in the first quarter, falling below expectations due to slower inventory replenishment and weak export growth.
- Despite the disappointing growth last quarter, this could potentially alter the views of Fed officials who were not keen on cutting rates following an upsurge in consumer prices.
- Some analysts believe that the weaker-than-expected report indicates the beginning of a broader economic slowdown.
- The report also highlights the performance of other sectors of the economy, such as the surge in housing construction, business investment growth, slower government spending, and the impact of trade on economic growth.

- Sony Pictures' work on 28 Years Later is progressing, as Ralph Fiennes, Jodie Comer, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson have all signed up to join Danny Boyle and Alex Garland’s post-apocalyptic follow-up, according to Deadline.
- The three stars are now attached to the first of a planned three-movie run for the franchise. Details about their roles remain undisclosed at this time.
- Fiennes, Comer, and Taylor-Johnson each possess enough star power to carry their own films. Fiennes is best known for his roles in The Grand Budapest Hotel and Schindler’s List, but also made a name for himself as an intimidating head chef and as Lord Voldemort in Harry Potter movies. Taylor-Johnson has appeared in numerous superhero films and is allegedly a top candidate to take on James Bond.

- 28 Years Later aims to bring the three stars together to narrate a story penned by Garland and directed by Boyle. However, the trio is only committed to the initial installment, leaving their return for future films uncertain. A second film in what could be a 28 Years Later trilogy is already confirmed, with Nia DaCosta as the favored choice to direct. The filming plan involves shooting both movies consecutively.

The Turkish opposition’s stunning turnround: President Erdoğan must resist returning to populist policies, and stifling his competitors
ft.com/content/86c3f1cb-5d40-49dd-8971-66565577f4ae
Quick Glance: The Turkish opposition’s remarkable transformation
