SAKARYA
Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has said that he considered the developments taking place in the Middle East for 1.5 years as the naturalization of the history.
Davutoglu speaking via teleconference at an international conference on Middle East in western province of Sakarya on Tuesday said that the naturalization process of history had been painful but false structures, false psychologies started to dissolve as the history was getting natural.
Davutoglu stated that there had been 3 tremors during the Cold War and Arab Spring was the 3rd quake. He added that the first was the geopolitical earthquake emerged by the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the second was the suicide attacks on US on September 11, 2001.
Davutoglu said that a Palestinian state was promised in 1991 but Palestinians had been suffering from suppression since then, and it generated a trauma in the region. He added that Middle Eastern people felt that their honor was insulted deeply on Palestine issue and reacted regardless of their ethnic roots or sect.
Main element of the uprisings in Middle East was fight for honor
Davutoglu has said that the fire Abu Aziz set in Tunisia would rise as a freedom torch in the whole Middle East, and with the contribution of new generations the region would be reshaped as a peace, serenity and stability basin.
Davutoglu speaking via teleconference at an international conference on Middle East in western province of Sakarya on Tuesday said that the main element of the uprisings in the Middle East was the fight for honor and Arab people were trying to discover themselves with this new psychology.
He said that the freedom of the people of the Middle East was constantly delayed by their administrators for several reasons but a state's main duty was providing the citizens with freedom and security at the same time.
Old structures in the Middle East could not fulfill the demands of the new generations said Davutoglu and added that they were supporting Middle Eastern youth on their journey to shape their fates.
Turkish FM also stated that they did not see the uprisings ethnic or sectarian but a fight for a new, transparent political structure.
A new Middle East
Davutoglu said that they would like to see all the countries in Middle East integrating with a free visa policy and added that they did not prefer one ethnic group over another.
He said that all their effort was for a Middle East which is a basin of peace.
