Erdoğan could not become a president and thus declared the end of peace process, but he might not be the only player in AKP… Let’s see..
The gov’t’s refusal to provide legal guarantees for the PKK’s withdrawal, coupled with the construction of military fortresses, effectively ended the cease-fire, HDP co-chair says
At the request of Ankara Nato members will meet today, Tuesday, to discuss Turkey’s conflicts with the IS and the PKK. The main question will be whether and how the alliance partners can provide support. Commentators warn that Ankara must not be allowed to treat the Kurds and the IS equally as enemies but doubt that the Nato partners will give this much consideration.
The Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) submitted a parliamentary motion on July 30 for an inquiry into the discretionary fund provided to President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
A total of 190 militants have been killed in two major airstrikes by the Turkish military targeting the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party’s (PKK) bases both inside Turkey and northern Iraq, intelligence sources told daily Hürriyet. 30 F-16s reportedly bombed PKK camps again on July 30.
The US’ involvement in Syria displays no strategy, no boundaries and no clear goals. The only viable long-term solution to Syria’s problems is diplomacy
The US war against Isis is being fought on autopilot, with little thought given to whether our actions will hurt or help American interests in the long-run. This weeks’ agreement between the United States and Turkey to create an ill-defined “Isis-free zone” in the north of Syria is just the latest example of this problem. Not only will it fail to reconcile the vastly different goals sought by America and its allies, it also risks mission creep, increasing US involvement in the Syrian conflict with little chance of success.
The change in Turkey’s attitude in the war on ISIL is motivated by deeply complex international and domestic issues.
Turkey’s president says his country cannot continue the peace process with the Kurds amid attacks by Kurdish militants on Turkish targets.
President Erdoğan vowed that Turkey would take no step back in its fight against terrorism, adding politicians with links to ‘terrorist groups’ should be stripped of their immunity
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has said Ankara could not continue the Kurdish peace process amid continuing attacks against Turkish targets
Turkish army has started building a rocket-proof wall, 2.5 meters high and 1 meter wide, on the Syrian border in the southern province of Hatay, with ditches being dug along the borderline, amid spiraling tension near and on the border
Although the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) is continuing talks with the social democrat Republican People’s Party (CHP) for a coalition government, AKP leader Ahmet Davutoğlu revealed that they were also in close contact with the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP)
According to Prime Ministry, 1050 people were detained in 34 cities during police operations against three illegal organizations. It was stated that operations would continue.
Turkey’s NATO partners has said they stand “in strong solidarity” with the nation, and that the security of the U.S.-led alliance is ‘indivisible’
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has slammed Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) co-chair Selahattin Demirtaş over the latter’s claims that a deep state organization directly linked to Erdoğan conducted a suicide bombing attack that killed 32 people in the southeastern district of Suruç on July 20
Turkish fighter jets took off late July 28 to hit terrorist targets inside Turkey and across the border in northern Iraq as part of its week-long aerial campaign in the fight against terrorism
Turkey denies claim by YPG that tanks fired on border village of Zur Maghar overnight, reportedly wounding four fighters
Press freedom groups register deep concern at firing of respected journalist

Marine Le Pen has presented her new Polish and British allies, who will be propping up her group in the European Parliament. But the details of their political programme are yet to be defined. EurActiv France reports.
How Europe’s nationalists came together a year after the polls
Marine Le Pen and Geert Wilders announced the formation of the new Europe of Nations and Freedoms group in the European Parliament today. A financial success? Sure. A political success? Unlikely.
EU solidarity damaged by splits on migrants and Greece
The Danish election: One to watch
Denmark’s general election will take place on Thursday. The vote could yield a new centre-right government that is strongly supportive of David Cameron’s EU renegotiation bid. Irrespective of who wins, the election is likely to see the country’s eurosceptic parties increase their power in the Folketing, the Danish parliament. This post is co-authored by Aleksander Pruitt and Pieter Cleppe.
Even if a majority of German business leaders look upon a Grexit as a favourable option, writes Steffen Vogel, the political price of a Grexit cannot be underestimated. A Grexit would be nothing short of an act of desperation by political elites either unable, or unwilling, to find an alternative solution.
The Greece debt crisis negotiations in quotes
The Greek central bank warned on Wednesday (17 June) that the country would be put on a “painful course” towards default and exiting the eurozone if the government and its international creditors failed to reach an agreement on an aid-for-reforms deal.
Greece’s central bank has warned for the first time that the country could be on a “painful course” towards default and exiting the eurozone.
The EU interior ministers again failed to reach an agreement on the distribution of refugees on Tuesday. And a new conflict is brewing over whether hundreds of refugees should be allowed to cross the border from Italy into France. Without solidarity there can be no solution to the refugee crisis, commentators write, and call on the EU states to set aside their nationalist eyeglasses.
In the Soviet Union, anyone without an official job could be charged with ‘parasitism’ and sentenced to internal exile. Now Belarus has revived the idea.
The 4th round of EU-Cuba negotiations for a framework agreement for political dialogue and cooperation was held yesterday in Brussels (16 June), making progress in the economic area, but lagging behind on the political dialogue chapter.
