Uyanır uyanmaz telefonuma gelen mesajları farkettim. Sabahın erken saatlerinde polislerin hakkımdaki yakalama kararıyla eve geldiğini haber veriyordu iki yıldır görüşemediğim annem. Bir yıl önce, yine bir Şubat günü, yine benimle ilgili gelmişlerdi; ancak bu sefer ziyaretin farklı bir meseleden dolayı olduğunu tahmin edebiliyordum.

Le 28 janvier 2020, le troisième cycle de l’Examen périodique universel de la Turquie a eu lieu devant le Conseil des droits de l’homme des Nations unies à Genève. L’événement fait partie d’un mécanisme unique permettant la mise en avant du bilan en matière des droits humains de chaque membre de l’ONU tous les cinq ans.

"How many people were fired when the reunification happened in Germany?" This question has been persistently used as a cliché answer by the Turkish officials whenever they are asked about the wide-ranging purges in public sector in Turkey.

@TC_Disisleri Bakan Yardımcısı @frkkymkc'nın BM #UPRTurkey toplantısında kağıttan okumaya çalışırken İngilizcesiyle alay konusu olup haklı bir üne kavuştuğu konuşma metni, aslında en öncelikli olarak içerik açısından skandal mahiyetteydi.

"Sayın Hocam, E-posta mesajıma yanıt verme nezaketi gösterdiğiniz için teşekkür ederim. Agos'taki yazınızda "toptancı yaklaşım" ve bazı hususları "eksik bırakma" şeklinde iki hata yaptığınızı kabul etmenizi ve bir sonraki yazınızda bu hususlara değinme taahhüdünde bulunmanızı önemsiyorum.

Uluç Özülker'in "dil bilmiyorlar", "herhangi bir backgroundları yok" dediği ve "terörist!" olarak nitelediği ihraç olmuş 600 diplomattan birisi olmam cihetiyle, şahsım adına bu hayâsız şarlatanlığa bir cevap hakkı doğdu. Esasen ailemin bana verdiği terbiye icabı övünmek maksadıyla geçmişimi sayıp dökmekten ar ederim, ama haysiyet cellatlığına soyunan birtakım uzaktan kumandalı adamların yüzlerine bazı şeyleri çarpmak vacip oldu.

This report sets out to provide a comprehensive analysis of the tactics employed by the Erdoğan administration to achieve repressive goals abroad and the vulnerabilities and how they are enabled by the AML and CFT regulation in place.

This submission highlights the ongoing systematic actions and omissions by Turkish authorities against the so-called members of the Gulen Group, framed as crimes against humanity. It demonstrates the violations of recommendations that even Türkiye has supported.

This report offers an update to the United Nations Committee against Torture (the Committee) regarding the obstacles to implementing the Convention against Torture (the Convention) in Turkey. As a coalition formed by a collective of former Turkish diplomats, our focus is on the systematic torture faced by former diplomats detained at Ankara Police Headquarters. We delve into the Turkish context and present insights from our organization.

His electoral victory in May 2023 gave President Erdoğan five more years to further consolidate his power, eviscerate institutions, fill the bureaucracy with yes-men and expand his corruption network. This, of course, raises questions about the Turkish political system’s chances of recovery, the prospects for democratization after Erdogan and the regime’s tolerance for his demise.

This report aims to reveal and analyze the criminal acts and/or omissions of the Turkish authorities against individuals alleged to be affiliated with, connected to, or members of the Gülen Group in the context of violations of the right to property as crimes against humanity.

Most of the Russian propaganda in Turkey is not overtly conducted by Russian state-affiliated media outlets. Eurasianists in Turkey carry out the Kremlin’s bidding to influence Turkish public opinion in favor of Russian war efforts. They blame the West, specifically NATO and the US, for instigating the war in Ukraine and causing regional instability. They also attack Turkey's political opposition for their milder views on NATO and the US and recommend that the Turkish government prioritize its relations with Russia.
