de facto<\/em> et selon des lignes d’int\u00e9r\u00eats communs entre l’Allemagne, la Russie et la Turquie, en en acte d’ind\u00e9pendance des USA. (La proposition a d’autant plus de sens que l’Allemagne a des liens particuliers avec la Turquie, \u00e0 cause de la tr\u00e8s forte immigration turque.)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tCette sorte de perspective devrait comprendre, ou int\u00e9resser, ou concerner la France. Dans ces affaires autour de la Turquie, comme dans d’autres du m\u00eame style, la France n’est nulle part. Elle se noie dans l’oc\u00e9an de m\u00e9diocrit\u00e9 aliment\u00e9 par sa direction actuelle. A chacun son oil spill<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00abUS foreign policy after the fall of the USSR has largely been built around military and political dominance of the Middle East, Central Asia, and the Balkans. Wars in Yugoslavia, Iraq and Afghanistan allowed Washington to regulate relations between its major rivals in Europe and Asia, prevent the emergence of an anti-US bloc, or intimidate them if needed with the threat of military force. However, the weakening of the US economy and the unpopularity of US foreign policy at home are undermining this strategy.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbWashington sees the emergence of Turkey as an independent powerin the center of this contested region, and opposed to US policy on Iran and Gazaas a threat to fundamental US interests. Stephen Kinzer, an author studying the Middle East, explained to the New York Times: Turks are telling the US, The Cold War’s over. You have to take a more cooperative approach, and we can help.’ The US is not prepared to accept that offer.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tStephen Cook stated the issue more bluntly: the question being debated in Washington, Cook said in the Times, is how do we keep the Turks in their lane? Writing in Foreign Policy, Cook labeled Turkey America’s new rival in the Middle East.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\t\u00bbThese comments underscore the global ramifications of the confrontation developing in the Near East. One major consideration guiding policy towards Turkey in Washington will be the impact of Turkey’s actions on US relations with Europe.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbSummarizing a May essay by former German Chancellor Gerhard Schr\u00f6der, Die Welt wrote: The European Union will be able to exist independently of the power centers in the US and China only by uniting its forces. It must therefore deepen relations with Turkey and associate itself with Russia.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbThe significance of public advocacy of a political axis between Germany, Russia, and Turkey, aiming to preserve European independence from the US, goes far beyond the immediate prospects that such an axis will emerge. Schr\u00f6der is remembered in Washington for his opposition at the UN to the US invasion of Iraq. His advocacy of such a political axis will be met by powerful sections of the US political establishment by moves to prevent it from developing.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\n
