A big change is beginning in exports in terms of quality and quantity. This change heralds that there will be serious disruptions in global supply chain management. This period, when logistics centers entered a transformation process with new trade routes and production flows, is a sign of a total change. The economic weight of the world is shifting to the eastern side of the scales. Along with production, finance, consumption, tourism and many other sectors began to rise in Asia. As China rapidly passes the industrialization phase and enters the process of becoming rich, it continues to distribute prosperity to its neighbors, its surroundings and the trade routes it operates. This new balance environment inevitably affects global conditions and political axes as well as the economy. Contrary to the past, turning east does not mean going back but reading the future correctly. This order, which ended the unipolar world, entered our lives many years ago. Even though the West has difficulty accepting this, it is certain that it will have to live with this reality. A polyphonic order now prevails in the world. Türkiye is one of the most important actors of this symphony. Our country, which is the entry and exit gate of both the west and the east, has been implementing this strategy for a long time.
This is, of course, the source of the anti-Turkey attitudes of European countries, especially America. Unfortunately, these countries, which have become ill-tempered with the drive to lose, will have to accept this situation. People who are used to Turkey being obedient and implementing everything dictated to the letter will undoubtedly find this new system strange. Accepting a new player to the table will not be in their best interest. However, just as every future is actually close, it was clear from the very beginning that this potential in our country would emerge. Turkey, which has become stronger, developed and included in the game, has the power and will to benefit everyone who is friends and allies with it. Countries that will stand against this will definitely suffer the consequences. Our country has a chance to be the star of the future with its geopolitically strategic location, young population and global influence. Even though these difficult days beat us, we must endure and know how to reach the top just as we overcome the slopes. This new power and new spirit will suit us very well and will be good for the world. Everyone needs a brave heart that can say stop to global injustice and carelessness. Turkey is a unique country with a historical identity, perspective and future vision that can carry this mission in every sense. We must never lose our unity, peace and solidarity for the understanding of global justice that we desire.
We must continue to work with all our strength to leave a country proud of its nobility to the generations after us. This noble duty is our most fundamental responsibility, placed upon us individually. Along with us, all the oppressed peoples of the world are waiting for this giant awakening. As Akif said, “The days that your right promised you will come, who knows, maybe tomorrow, maybe even closer than tomorrow.” As I conclude my words with these intentions and wishes, I congratulate you on the holy month of Ramadan and wish it to bring health, peace and prosperity to our country and the whole world.
Kind regards,
