Ten Princesses on the President’s Pea!
Sevgili arkadaşım, who're you, who do you think you are?

My people are going to learn the principles of democracy, the dictates of truth and the teachings of science. Superstition must go. Let them worship as they will, every man can follow his own conscience provided it does not interfere with sane reason or bid him act against the liberty of his fellow men. (Mustafa Kemal Atatürk)
Dear Mr President of Turkey!
To start with, congratulations on your renewed Presidency!
What a lucky punch of yours, right?!
Sevgili arkadaşım, had their been somewhat of a reincarnation of a Mustafa Kemal Atatürk[1] competing against you, you wouldn’t‘ve had a chance to win the Presidential Election. To this day, Atatürk’s unique achievements have exerted reverb on Turkey, ever since he assumed office aiming at reinventing your country – a long time ago!
Moreover, compliments on having brought about some of the most paradoxical political accomplishments over the past years, suggesting your upcoming Presidential Term to be casting even more shadows on Turkey’s and the World’s future, as follows:
First Princess on the President‘s Pea) Major appearances and Political Campaigning[2] in Germany aversively framing resident Turks‘ mindset against fellow[3] Turkish citizens, German Policy Makers and the German population altogether; instrumentalising Germany's democratic freedom, publicly voicing despotic slogans proving non-compatible with her Liberal Democratic Order.
Could you imagine that taking place in Turkey?! By the way, how many nationalities[4] do Turkish people require for cherry-picking?!
Heroes who shed their blood and lost their lives! You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours. You, the mothers, who sent their sons from far away countries wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well. (Mustafa Kemal Atatürk)
Second Princess on the President‘s Pea) Omitting due process of law, arresting and imprisoning German-Turkish journalist Denis Yücel[5] on site in Turkey, labelling him a "terrorist" for having scrutinised long-lasting economic, political, social and humanitarian grievances in Turkey.
Could you imagine that taking place in Turkey?!
Third Princess on the President‘s Pea) Exposing German comedian Jan Böhmermann[6] to criminal prosection in Germany on accusing him of having voiced "defamatory statements"[7] on yourself and incumbency in due course of one of his Tonight Shows.
Could you imagine that taking place in Turkey?!
Fourth Princess on the President‘s Pea) In due course of Turkey‘s nationwide earthquakes, apparent Leadership negligence in prompting humanitarian aide and delivering clearing work.
Could you imagine that taking place in any other developed country of the world?!
Everything we see in the world is the creative work of women. (Mustafa Kemal Atatürk)
Fifth Princess on the President‘s Pea) Substantiating commendable mediation between Russia‘s and Ukraine‘s counterparties on negotiating grain import and export agreements, alongside continuing odd trade efforts with Putin, Russia’s President and globally undisputed War Perpetrator against the Ukrainian population.
Could you imagine any other Political King Pin of the developed and free world doing the splits of such kind?!
Sixth Princess on the President‘s Pea) Persistently frustrating Sweden's anticipated NATO membership[8] on alleging the Scandinavians of permitting, if not supporting "terrorist efforts", e.g. adducing "Koran burning" and similar kinds of single action.
Could you imagine such an accusation on, e.g. "Bible, Prayer Wheel[9] or Japamala[10] burnings" to be voiced in any other developed country of the world?!
Those who use religion for their own benefit are detestable. We are against such a situation and will not allow it. Those who use religion in such a manner have fooled our people; it is against just such people that we have fought and will continue to fight. (Mustafa Kemal Atatürk)
Would any other G7/20 and NATO ally dare to be intertwinning Religious Beliefs[11], Personal Motives and political best practice methods, aiming at boycotting a vital NATO aspirant, proving pivotal to sustaining Peace in Europe and the World, en passant conducting business with Natty Russian and Belarusian War Lords?!
How and why did Turkey become a NATO member[12]?! Again, does Atatürk ring a bell?
Esteemed Citizen[13] Erdoğan!
Do you have any idea, why Turkey has been denied admission[14] to qualifying for EU membership so far?! Guess who’s spoiled it so far and why?
Seventh Princess on the President‘s Pea) Turkey would’ve remained a charming Desert Inn, hadn’t European – especially German – and American master mind engineers provided key concepts to establishing infrastructure, industrialisation, macro- and micro-economic as much as financial development, starting in the early 1960s.
Of course, neither Germany’s Resurrection and Economic Miracle would’ve taken effect without the Greek, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Turkish and Yugoslav migrant workers‘ great effort and support!
Oops, an error just occurred ... is that so?!
Peace at Home, Peace in the World. (Mustafa Kemal Atatürk)
Eighth Princess on the President‘s Pea) Providing you remained Head of Government in the mid to long term, your country and Turkish compatriots should deserve inclined joint support at meeting the G7/20‘s, EU‘s and NATO’s Democratic Mindset, Foreign Affaires and Defence[15] Policy in the context of global Human Rights Ratifications and International Constitutional Law.
Oh ... you didn’t quite catch that?!
Ninth Princess on the President‘s Pea) Undeniably, several Rogue States and their Dictators[16] surrounding Turkey geographically, habitually practice murder and manslaughter among their people. Against that backdrop, you might’ve resorted to a creeping corruption of your introspection, tempting you to keep on assuming, you were a kind of moderate sevgili büyükbaba.
Now what?!
Tenth Princess on the President‘s Pea) What ist more, so far, Turkey has ignored the Human Rights, Needs and Wants of Kurds[17], just as Israel has foregone those of the Palestinians[18], or China those of the Uyghurs'[19], Chinese people of Turkish origin having strived for Equal Opportunity.
Unfortunately, there’re too many other global examples of the like.
Okay … so what?!
Mankind is a single body and each nation a part of that body. We must never say "What does it matter to me if some part of the world is ailing?" If there is such an illness, we must concern ourselves with it as though we were having that illness. (Mustafa Kemal Atatürk)
Honorable Recep Tayyip!
Who’re you, who do you think you are?! Do you really know the people in your Turkish and Global Neighbourhood?
