Guardian<\/em>, – sa premi\u00e8re interview \u00e0 un journal \u00e9tranger depuis son accession \u00e0 la pr\u00e9sidence le 28 août 2007. Cette initiative n’est pas un hasard, du point de vue de la direction turque. Si G\u00fcl parle essentiellement de la candidature de la Turquie \u00e0 l’UE, il dit aussi quelques mots qui ne sont pas sans int\u00e9r\u00eat sur la situation du monde avec et apr\u00e8s la crise russo-g\u00e9orgienne et sur l’Iran (il allait rencontrer le Pr\u00e9sident iranien en visite en Turquie peu apr\u00e8s son interview).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n«Days after Russia scored a stunning geopolitical victory in the Caucasus, President Abdullah G\u00fcl of Turkey said he saw a new multipolar world emerging from the wreckage of war. The conflict in Georgia, G\u00fcl asserted, showed that the United States could no longer shape global politics on its own, and should begin sharing power with other countries.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n»\u00ab\u00a0I don’t think you can control all the world from one centre,\u00a0\u00bb G\u00fcl told the Guardian. \u00ab\u00a0There are big nations. There are huge populations. There is unbelievable economic development in some parts of the world. So what we have to do is, instead of unilateral actions, act all together, make common decisions and have consultations with the world. A new world order, if I can say it, should emerge.\u00a0\u00bb<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n»G\u00fcl, relaxing in a hotel suite with a spectacular view of the glistening Bosphorus, spoke just hours before meeting with the visiting president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n»He rejected the idea, promoted by the United States and Israel, that the best way to deal with Iran was to isolate, sanction and punish it. \u00ab\u00a0There are so many important issues, like the nuclear issue, Iraq, the Caucasus, Afghanistan,\u00a0\u00bb he said. \u00ab\u00a0Iran is definitely having some influence of these issues, so we are talking.\u00a0\u00bb G\u00fcl said Iran had a right to develop nuclear energy but not nuclear weapons. \u00ab\u00a0We don’t want to see weapons of mass destruction in this region,\u00a0\u00bb he said. \u00ab\u00a0If it’s in our neighbourhood, we definitely don’t want to see it.\u00a0\u00bb<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n»Asked about the possibility of an American attack on Iran, G\u00fcl replied: \u00ab\u00a0I don’t want to think about that. Everybody should take a lesson from what happened in Iraq,\u00a0\u00bb he said. \u00ab\u00a0Diplomatic solutions are always better than hard solutions.\u00a0\u00bb<\/em>»<\/p>\n<\/p>\nL’appr\u00e9ciation de G\u00fcr sur la crise russo-g\u00e9orgienne est int\u00e9ressante parce qu’elle constitue l’une des premi\u00e8res appr\u00e9ciations globales des cons\u00e9quences de cette crise, d’un dirigeant politique de ce niveau de responsabilit\u00e9. Venant du pr\u00e9sident d’un pays qui a toujours \u00e9t\u00e9 consid\u00e9r\u00e9 comme un alli\u00e9 strat\u00e9gique central des USA dans la r\u00e9gion du Moyen-Orient, cette appr\u00e9ciation est, plus encore qu’int\u00e9ressante, remarquable. Elle tend \u00e0 ent\u00e9riner ce qui devrait \u00eatre d\u00e9sormais consid\u00e9r\u00e9 comme une d\u00e9faite politique globale de la politique am\u00e9ricaniste qui conduit les affaires du monde surtout depuis 9\/11, et comme un tournant dans l’\u00e9volution politique g\u00e9n\u00e9rale. Les d\u00e9clarations du pr\u00e9sident G\u00fcr marquent combien la Turquie, avec la position-clef rappel\u00e9e plus haut, a l’intention de jouer un r\u00f4le d’importance dans \u00ab\u00a0le nouvel ordre mondial\u00a0\u00bb qu’il \u00e9voque dans l’interview. La Turquie est certes dans l’OTAN (pour rajouter un peu de sel \u00e0 la circonstance) mais elle a, avant beaucoup d’autres, un pied dans ce qu’elle juge \u00eatre une nouvelle \u00e9poque.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
