instituDE 'Global Affairs & Diplomacy' başlıklı eğitim programına başvuruları almaya başladı.

instituDE has released a new report titled "Modernizing the Turkey–EU Customs Union: Issues and Prospects," analyzing the need to update the 1995 trade agreement between Turkey and the European Union. The report provides a comprehensive assessment of how modernization could enhance economic growth, reduce trade barriers, and strengthen Turkey’s role in EU markets while addressing key regulatory and political challenges that have hindered negotiations.

The report provides a thorough analysis of how Turkey's geographic location, evolving political landscape, and growing organized crime activities have created favorable conditions for cocaine smuggling. It further explains how the erosion of the rule of law, lenient naturalization policies, and relaxed financial regulations have attracted international organized crime groups to the country.

The report outlines how Turkish authorities have manipulated these financial regulations to impose sanctions, freeze assets, and close the accounts of critics living abroad, effectively cutting them off from the global financial system. Based on in-depth research and case studies, the report illustrates the detrimental impact these practices have on individuals and the broader implications for global financial integrity.

Bugün 15 Temmuz’un 8. yılında, 15 Temmuz’un Cumhurbaşkanı Erdoğan tarafından uzun süredir istediği tek adam rejimini kurmak için suistimal edildiği çok açık bir gerçektir. Geldiğimiz noktada, Erdoğan ve yönetiminin 15 Temmuz anlatısının doğru olmadığı yerli ve yabancı objektif tüm çevrelerce kabul edilmektedir.

Today, on its 8th anniversary, it is crystal clear that the coup attempt on July 15 was exploited by President Erdogan to establish his long-desired one-man regime. It is now recognized by impartial Turkish and international observers that Erdogan and his regime's narrative of July 15 is neither coherent nor accurate.
