The article by Bülent Mumay criticizes the government's "century of Turkey" policy, which, under the pretense of protecting the family, suppresses the LGBT+ community and critical voices in society through a series of repressive measures, while at the same time a massive financial scandal has exacerbated the country's economic problems. #TürkiyeYüzyılı #LGBTQhakları #DijitalSansür (translated)

🇸🇦🇹🇷🇵🇰 Pakt z Mekky zvažuje své první mimořádné zasedání poté, co Húthíové dál stupňují útoky na Saúdskou Arábii.

Pákistán dokonce podle serveru Türkiye Today zvažoval, že by na žádost Saúdské Arábie provedl letecké údery proti Húthíům v Jemenu.

I believe the UN must abolish the Security Council's veto power. I believe scrapping the veto privilege must be both the starting point and the key strategic objective of any meaningful reform. I believe reform cannot mean extending the same privilege to other states. I believe that in today’s world lasting peace cannot be built by multiplying separate blocs that are cut off from each other and do not talk to one another. For a 'fairer world', we must bring together the experience, capacity and will of different regions on common ground. I said it is not possible for a Europe to be stronger or safer if Türkiye is excluded from its security architecture. #UNReform #VetoPower #GlobalCooperation

Recent actions against the human rights of LGBTIQ+ persons and organisations in Türkiye are deeply concerning.
