Turkey Won’t Step Back from Purchasing S-400: Erdogan
BasNews 19/05/2019 – 12:52 ERBIL – Turkey has made it clear that it will not take any steps back from purchasing Russia’s S-400 defense missile system, revealing that Ankara would even jointly produce the S-500 with Moscow.
Turkey’s close ally, the US, has repeatedly warned Ankara of buying the S-400, threatening to remove the country from the F-35 program if it doesn’t change its mind on the purchase, while the former has so far stayed determined to go for the move.
“There is absolutely no question of [Turkey] taking a step back from the S-400 purchase. That is a done deal,” President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Saturday, as cited by AlJazeera.
“There will be joint production of the S-500 after the S-400,” he added.
According to the deal, Russia is expected to deliver the defense system to Turkey in the upcoming July.

MESOPOTAMIA NEWS DEBATE : THE FUTURE OF TURKEY AND SDF (PKK/PYD) IN SYRIA
A Quagmire in the Making? – MOHANAD HAGE ALI
As Turkey prepares to move eastward in Syria, it is facing a growing number of difficulties. May 15, 2019- CARNEGIE ENDOWMENT
Turkey is poised to expand its “safe zone” in northern Syria toward regions eastward controlled by the Kurdish-dominated Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). With this goal in sight, Ankara will seek to contain Kurds affiliated with the Kurdistan Workers Party, which Ankara considers a terrorist organization, who are fighting under the banner of the SDF.Turkey is setting high expectations. Recently, Turkish President Recep Tayyib Erdoğan claimed that this expansion would allow for the return home of 4 million Syrian refugees currently residing in Turkey. However, such a swift return is unlikely given the security challenges in the Turkish-dominated region. Failure to fulfill his promises could cost Erdogan politically, as the Turkish leader has faced more organized domestic political opposition recently.

Turkey’s Diaspora Policy & the “DİTİB” Challenge
Author Yaşar Aydın – Yaşar Aydın discusses the ways that the Turkish diaspora in Germany is used as a tool of Turkish foreign policy. – Date – May 15, 2019 – THE MOSHE DAYAN CENTER FOR MIDDLE EAST STUDIES – ISRAEL
Today, it is possible to state that the bilateral relations between Turkey and Germany are perhaps the most strained that they have ever been. While there have been some signs of lessening tensions following the February 2018 release of German citizens held in Turkish prisons, points of contention still remain. These include an ongoing dispute over Fethullah Gülen’s supporters in Germany, the fate of other German citizens currently incarcerated in Turkey, and Ankara’s recent rescinding of work permits for German journalists. Meanwhile, the Ankara-Berlin relationship is further challenged by the Turkish Diaspora.[1]It is true that the transnational orientations of German citizens of Turkish origin and their communal organizations in Germany intensify the interdependencies between the two countries. However, simultaneously these transnational interconnections also increase the complexity of the bilateral relations and widen the friction between Turkey and Germany.[2]

MESOPOTAMIA NEWS : Turkey sticks to its guns on Russian missile-defense deal
Metin Gurcan May 13, 2019 – AL MONITOR – Article Summary – Despite the efforts of NATO heavy-hitter Jens Stoltenberg, Turkey seems to be moving closer to Russia and its S-400 air-defense system. A small-scale tremor shook relations between NATO and its increasingly rogue member Turkey on May 3 when a Cyprus delegation was included on a ceremonial guest list. The incident provides a glimpse into the challenging future awaiting Turkey’s ties with the alliance once Russia delivers its controversial S-400 missile-defense systems.
