Ülkemizin NATO’ya katılışının 72’nci yıl dönümünü kutluyoruz. Ülkemiz İttifaka dâhil olduğu günden bu yana üstlendiği her türlü görevi başarıyla yerine getirmiş ve getirmeye devam etmektedir. NATO’nun ikinci büyük ordusu olarak Türkiye, İttifakın merkezinde yer almaktadır. Türkiye; NATO Kara Komutanlığına ve NATO kuvvet yapısındaki yüksek hazırlık seviyeli kara kuvveti karargâhından biri olan NATO Hızlı Konuşlandırılabilir Kolordu Karargâhı’na da (3’üncü Kolordu Komutanlığı) ev sahipliği yapmaktadır. Ülkemiz, NATO’nun güçlü ve güvenilir bir üyesi olarak bugüne kadar olduğu gibi bundan sonra da NATO’ya önemli katkılarda bulunmayı sürdürecektir. We celebrate the 72nd anniversary of Türkiye joining the NATO alliance. Since the first day Türkiye has consistently upheld its obligations and responsibilities with unwavering dedication. As the second-largest military force within the Alliance, Türkiye proudly occupies a pivotal position at its core. Türkiye's strategic importance is further underscored by its hosting of the NATO Allied Land Command and the NATO Rapid Deployable Corps (3rd Corps Command), which serves as a vital component of the High Readiness Force (Land) within the NATO force structure. As a formidable and dependable member of NATO, Türkiye will continue to make indispensable contributions to the Alliance, mirroring its unwavering commitment to the organization's success throughout its history.

At The Gold Institute for International Strategy's Cyber Experts Roundtable on November 6, 2025, Retired Army Col. Laurie Buckhout 🎖🪖🇺🇸🦅 and retired Navy Rear Adm. Mark Montgomery address the key challenges and strategies in national cybersecurity. They stress the need to recognize cyberspace as a warfare domain and address the lack of a cohesive strategy for operation, defense, and power projection. They discuss the cybersecurity chain of command and who should have final decision authority for the offensive cyber response during a major cyber incident and the need for a new cabinet position and a Cyber Force branch. It's been a challenge to get the public's support without a catastrophic cyber security failure. As soon as your child can use a phone, teach them about the threats and the risks.

Mark Rutte's claim that Russia is capable of launching and sustaining an imminent invasion of the European Union in the short term is a fiction with a purpose. It's meant to lock Europeans into inertia, to discourage them from developing independent European command and control and instead just increase spending (on US weapons) under a NATO-only framework. <Watch full video: In yesterday's video I argued that it doesn’t matter if the US pulls out of NATO on paper or not. Even if Congress forces Trump to stay in, his words show they have already left and NATO is indeed now a paper tiger without the US security guarantee. As the former Danish MP Rasmus Jarlov has noted, "as long as we keep Ukraine from falling, Russia is not a threat to us in the short term.” Russia is exhausted at the moment from the Ukraine War. They absolutely have the intention to invade the EU, but we are some years away from that. That means, unlike what Rutte is telling us, Europe does have time to urgently and rapidly build a common defence without America. If we listen to Mark Rutte and do nothing because "there is no alternative to NATO" (Rutte) and "there is no NATO without the US" (Kallas), we are leaving ourselves as sitting ducks when Russia eventually invades and the US does not defend us. NATO is already dead. To save itself, Europe must end its NATO delusion and rebuke Mark Rutte’s suicidal vision for this continent. Europe must move on from the American protectorate - urgently.

It is impossible for all NATO allies to be like Turkiye. Why? This is because there are some countries within the alliance that demand all kinds of assistance without assuming any operational responsibility or join missions, and some has been engaging in hostile actions and lobbying efforts for years with the aim of hindering the progress of other NATO countries. Not only has this country failed to make any financial or military contributions to NATO, but it is also attempting to weaken NATO from within in order to hinder the progress of countries like Turkiye—which carry out NATO missions under the NATO flag from the Baltic states to Eastern Europe. Let’s turn to the other aspect of the issue: the question of being like Turkiye. Just think about it this way; What business does a country that can’t even build a cheap commercial ship have in the same military alliance as one that can produce over 50 warships including destroyers, aircraft carriers and submarines at the same time? Can the perception of power and alliance ever be the same between a country capable of delivering thousands of AG munitions in a single shipment and a country that is delighted even to purchase just 30–40 AG munitions? Can a country with only 150-170 tanks that could be considered "modern" in its inventory be the same as one that is building facilities capable of delivering 100 tanks a year? Can there be a spirit of unity between a country that can develop and fly a 5th-generation fighter jet, and build facilities to produce 24+9 KAAN fighter jets/year and a country that, upon purchasing 20-25 4th-generation aircraft, immediately thinks of provocation, illegal actions and violating treaties for expanding ? As long as NATO fails to purge own parasites within its union, other countries will be forced to walk with a burden on their backs. Without these types of freeloaders—who don’t shoulder any of the alliance’s burdens—NATO could be a much stronger military organization. They're of no use—at least we'd be spared the harm they cause. Imagine flying side by side in battle with the incompetents who crashed a plane into parked fighter jets during a NATO exercise or caused a helicopter to crash into the sea in other exercise while flying at low altitude. May God grant us ease.

Fire on ship near Baltimore prompts rapid coast guard response An #explosion aboard the W-Sapphire, a 751-foot cargo vessel en route to Mauritius, interrupted her departure from #Baltimore near the Francis Scott Key Bridge. #MarineTraffic data show the vessel departed at 2025-08-18 21.55 UTC, with tug support ending at 22.15 UTC. The BRIDGET MCALLISTER tug vessel resumed towing within 30 minutes, while at least five other vessels joined the operations. Emergency services established a 2,000-yard safety perimeter and removed the ship from the channel. The W-Sapphire remains afloat. No injuries were reported, and the cause is under investigation. Here's the vessel's movements and the full sequence of tug operations.

Command Sergeant Major Robert Dean on UFO origins: "We have been visited by at least four different extraterrestrial civilizations" 🛸👽👀 "One looks so much like us that they could walk through the corridors of NATO headquarters and no one would know." With Cosmic Top Secret clearance at SHAPE, he read the classified NATO Assessment in the 1960s. His most powerful conclusion: "There is absolutely no threat to humanity." After seeing the document he admitted, "I was never the same again." A 28-year Army veteran speaking from direct experience. What part of this revelation hits you the hardest? Do you believe one of these visitors could already be walking among us today?

🚨THE UKRAINE -RUSSIAN WAR WAS PROVOKED NATO DID NOT PROMOTE PEACE, NATO PROMOTED WARS How did this start? Zbigniew Brzezinski in the United States said, "We can surround Russia. We can weaken Russia. We can make Russia fall into pieces." He literally wrote in 1997, he said, "Oh, there'll be a confederation of three weak states, a European Russia, Siberian Russia, Far East Russia." This, this was a senior advisor to the US. They decided 30 years ago, we're gonna surround Russia in the Black Sea, we're going to weaken Russia, we're going to put our military all around Russia. They broke the nuclear balance and nuclear arms control framework in 2002. This was the worst move of all. United States walked out of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. And the Russians said, "Oh. You, you wanna have a first strike? You'll attack us in a decapitation strike and then you'll use your anti-ballistic missile system to prevent deterrents." In 2002, the United States just walked out of the ABM Treaty and the Russians said, "Excuse me? What, what, what the hell are you doing? This is our balance." And it came in the context of NATO enlargement. It came in the context of the United States bombing Belgrade for 78 straight days in 1999 to break Serbia in two, but in Kosovo, that region broken apart from Serbia, to put the largest NATO military base in Southeastern Europe, "Camp Bondsteel", in that base. So, the Russians are saying, "Are you kidding? You bomb Belgrade, you expand NATO even though you promised not to do so, you walk out of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty, the list goes on and on. You attack Iraq on completely phony pretenses, you launch a CIA operation to overthrow Bashar al-Assad, you send NATO to overthrow Gaddafi, late in, 2011, and you say NATO's gonna expand to Ukraine and to Georgia. You blame Russia for this? This was an America drunk with its power, saying we can do anything we want and with a plan, and the plan third-rate or fourth-rate or fifth-rate country or to break it was to turn Russia into a apart. On February 21st, 2014, three foreign ministers of the European Union negotiated with Mr. Yanukovych that he would stay in power and that there would be elections eight months later, and this was also agreed with President Putin. The next morning, a US-backed coup violently overthrew Yanukovych, and it took the United States a nanosecond to say, "We support the new government." Europe, because it's so filled with principles, "No, no, no. Yanukovych is president." No, of course it didn't say that. It said, "Whatever daddy said."So, daddy said that it's, now a new government brought in by a coup, and Europe suddenly couldn't even remember 24 hours that it negotiated an agreement with Yanukovych that he would stay in power. And they said, "No, no. He resigned." Oh, we don't think Russia should stay in Crimea anymore." It's been Russia's naval fleet since 1783. The coup is not a coincidence. The coup is to get Russia out of Sevastopol. That's the point. It was the reason why there was a Crimean War in 1853 when Britain and France said, "Get Russia out of the Black Sea." It was Brzezinski's idea in 1997. When Trump comes in in the first term, US pours in the military aid and builds up a million-person army, the largest in Europe actually. What happened when Russia invaded in February 24th, 2022? Within about a week, Zelenskyy said, "Okay, we can be neutral, we can be neutral." And the Ukrainians sent a note to the Russians, "Neutral. We, we don't need the NATO invasion. You stop fighting, we'll declare neutrality." I know in detail this story because I talked to the negotiators at length, and to the Turkish mediators, because a process started in Istanbul to have Ukraine and Russia sit down with each other. And on April 15th, they initialed a document which was almost complete. What happened? The United States and Britain walked in and told the Ukrainians, "No, you continue fighting." The European mainstream media blocks the most basic facts on all of this. This, war could have ended so many times it avoided entirely. Now Europe is in this unbelievable warmongering period led by the German chancellor, of all people and all countries, absolutely unpleasant, Merz, Macron, Starmer. In 2023, I had a conversation with President Macron. And I said, "Mr. President, this war came from NATO enlargement." He said, "You're absolutely right." I said, "Mr. President, this war could end if NATO would just be clear that it's not going to enlarge Ukraine." "You're absolutely right." Yes, nice conversation.

Let’s take a closer look at the statements about a possible U.S. withdrawal from NATO. While a rapid formal withdrawal is unlikely due to congressional constraints, President Trump is fully capable of turning NATO into a functionally hollow shell by withdrawing troops, undermining trust, and abandoning commitments. In practical terms, the difference between an actual "withdrawal" and "internal sabotage" could be minimal. If this were to happen and NATO were effectively dismantled, the consequences would not be limited to Europe - the United States would also be affected. If the U.S. were to leave NATO or the alliance were to collapse, Washington would have to spend an additional $100-200 billion annually just to maintain its current level of global influence, while also losing around $24 billion per year in defense purchases by allies from U.S. manufacturers. Access to the world’s largest market - the European Union - could be put at risk, and the stability of transatlantic sea lanes, critical to the U.S. economy, would no longer be guaranteed. The NATO nuclear-sharing mechanism, which helps contain nuclear proliferation in Europe, would disappear, and the U.S. would lose an established coalition infrastructure with integrated command structures - something that cannot be quickly rebuilt. The greatest strategic beneficiary of a NATO collapse would be China. Undermining transatlantic unity has long been one of its key geopolitical objectives, and a signal of U.S. pullback in Europe would erode the confidence of Asian allies - Japan, South Korea, and Australia - weakening the entire global network of U.S. alliances. A brief historical context: NATO was founded in 1949, with the United States playing a central role in shaping its architecture. A series of crises - including the communist coup in Czechoslovakia and the Soviet blockade of Berlin - convinced the Truman administration of the need for long-term U.S. engagement in Europe. What NATO has provided to the United States: ◾️ Strategic leadership. By leading NATO, the U.S. maintains significant influence over global security policy, ensuring representation of its interests and values on the international stage - something neither Russia nor China and their partners can replicate. ◾️ Financial advantages. As of 2025, NATO allies (excluding the U.S.) spend more than $560 billion annually on defense. Without the alliance, the U.S. would need to increase its own defense spending by an additional $100-200 billion each year. ◾️ Arms exports. Defense procurement by NATO allies from U.S. manufacturers reached $24 billion in 2023 - part of a broader 55.9% increase in U.S. arms exports. ◾️ Nuclear stability. NATO’s nuclear-sharing mechanism allows the U.S. to maintain strategic deterrence in Europe without requiring allies to develop their own nuclear weapons - preventing nuclear proliferation. Alternatives to NATO for the U.S. already exist in several parallel formats: AUKUS (U.S., UK, Australia), the Quad (U.S., Japan, India, Australia), bilateral defense treaties with Japan, South Korea, and the Philippines, as well as ANZUS (Australia, New Zealand). However, none of these fully replaces NATO. Neither the Quad nor AUKUS includes binding mutual defense obligations in the event of an attack, nor do they have integrated command structures or legally binding guarantees comparable to NATO’s Article 5. So, NATO is an asymmetrically beneficial arrangement for the United States. Allies spend hundreds of billions, purchase American weapons, reinforce nuclear deterrence, and legitimize U.S. global leadership. None of the existing alternatives replicates this system - neither in scale nor in legal strength. 📹: PM Starmer: We are very strong supporters of NATO. It is the single most effective military alliance the world has ever known. Do Europeans need to do more? Yes. I have been making that case for the best part of two years, and it is in America’s interest too.

I asked NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte to assemble a coalition of the willing to carry out an operation aimed at weakening the Iranian regime. Here is his full response, which he gave during yesterday’s hearing in the European Parliament. An important signal is clearly visible in it. He indicates clear parameters within which he intends to act. That framework is defined by the cooperation between Iran, North Korea, Russia, and China. In international politics, this constellation is known as the axis of evil. Even without this context, NATO could act, as the Alliance also protects its member states from terrorism — and Iran is a major state sponsor of terrorism. The president of NATO’s de facto leading country, Donald Trump, has called for NATO to be used collectively to protect member states from illegal migration. If NATO countries could act even to stop fortune-seekers from crossing borders, how much more justified would action be against terrorism directed at our countries. However, when it comes to influencing the NATO Secretary General, what ultimately matters is what he himself believes — and he has now stated this openly with regard to Iran. We must speak clearly about the crucial role Iran plays in the axis of evil that operates against Europe. We must speak about how Iran has directly enabled — and continues to enable — Russia’s imperial ambitions, first through Georgia, then through Ukraine, and potentially through other European countries. Iran is a financier, an arms supplier, and an enabler. How long can we afford to stand by and watch? An illegitimate regime that deliberately executes its own innocent citizens also threatens Europe through its nuclear programme. When we speak on behalf of the Iranian people in different forums and to different audiences, it is essential — in order to maximise impact — to understand how to speak the language and use the arguments that each audience finds relevant. We have now received a direct answer that shows how the NATO Secretary General views Iran. I therefore urge that this perspective be used, and when addressing NATO, I encourage using precisely the arguments outlined above. NATO will not come to anyone’s aid out of goodwill, but solely on the basis of its own security interests. Once this is understood, it becomes possible to persuade NATO using the right arguments. #FreeIran

In international politics, this constellation is known as the axis of evil. Even without this context, NATO could act, as the Alliance also protects its member states from terrorism — and Iran is a major state sponsor of terrorism. The president of NATO’s de facto leading country, Donald Trump, has called for NATO to be used collectively to protect member states from illegal migration. If NATO countries could act even to stop fortune-seekers from crossing borders, how much more justified would action be against terrorism directed at our countries. However, when it comes to influencing the NATO Secretary General, what ultimately matters is what he himself believes — and he has now stated this openly with regard to Iran. We must speak clearly about the crucial role Iran plays in the axis of evil that operates against Europe. We must speak about how Iran has directly enabled — and continues to enable — Russia’s imperial ambitions, first through Georgia, then through Ukraine, and potentially through other European countries. Iran is a financier, an arms supplier, and an enabler. How long can we afford to stand by and watch? An illegitimate regime that deliberately executes its own innocent citizens also threatens Europe through its nuclear programme. When we speak on behalf of the Iranian people in different forums and to different audiences, it is essential — in order to maximise impact — to understand how to speak the language and use the arguments that each audience finds relevant. We have now received a direct answer that shows how the NATO Secretary General views Iran. I therefore urge that this perspective be used, and when addressing NATO, I encourage using precisely the arguments outlined above. NATO will not come to anyone’s aid out of goodwill, but solely on the basis of its own security interests. Once this is understood, it becomes possible to persuade NATO using the right arguments. #FreeIran

🚨🚨🚨WAKE UP EUROPE 🛎️🛎️🛎️ If You Still Believe That Russia Started This Conflict in 2022, Then You Are Ignorant, or Brainwashed. The END to NATO. The Ukraine war, which I will argue was provoked by the West and especially the United States. This war will be settled on the battlefield where the Russians are likely to win an ugly victory. Settling the war diplomatically is not possible because the opposing sides have irreconcilable differences. Instead, it's likely to be, as I said, an ugly victory, where Russia ends up occupying somewhere between 20 to 40% of pre-2014 Ukraine, while Ukraine ends up as a dysfunctional rump state covering the territory that Russia does not conquer. Ukraine has effectively been wrecked. It has already lost a substantial portion of its territory and is likely to lose more land before the fighting stops. Russian leaders recognized that the Ukrainian army, which was larger than the invasion force, I want to emphasize this, the Ukrainian army was larger than the Russian invasion force, it was armed and trained by NATO, and it was becoming a de facto member of NATO. Immediately after the war began, Russia, not Ukraine, Russia reached out to Ukraine to start negotiations to end the war and work out a modus vivendi between the two countries. This move is directly at odds with the claim that Putin wanted to conquer Ukraine and make it part of greater Russia. Negotiations between Kiev and Moscow began in Belarus just four days, four days after the Russian invasion. And that Belarus track was eventually replaced by an Israeli as well as an Istanbul track. The available evidence indicates that the Russians were negotiating seriously and were not interested in absorbing Ukrainian territory, save for Crimea, which they had annexed in 2014, and possibly the Donbass region. The negotiations ended when the Ukrainians, with prodding from Britain and the United States, walked away from the negotiations, which were making good progress at the time. The Russians did not walk away from the negotiations. In the months before the war started, Putin tried to find a diplomatic solution to the brewing crisis. On 17 October 2021, remember the war begins February 2022, this is 17 December 2021, Putin sends letters to both President Biden and to NATO Chief Jens Stoltenberg proposing a solution to the crisis based on a written guarantee that does three things. Number one, Ukraine would not join NATO, number two, no offensive weapons would be stationed near Russia's borders, and number three, NATO troops and equipment moved into Eastern Europe since 1997 would be moved back to Western Europe. Whatever one thinks of the feasibility of reaching a bargain based on Putin's opening demands, it shows he was trying to avoid war. The United States, on the other hand, refused to negotiate with Putin. It appears it was not interested in avoiding war. In fact, the United States and its European allies provoked the war. Bringing Kiev into the European Union and promoting a color revolution in Ukraine, you all remember the Orange Revolution, which was designed to make Ukraine a pro-Western liberal democracy, are the other two prongs of the policy. Russian leaders across the board said repeatedly before the war. that they considered NATO expansion into Ukraine to be an existential threat that had to be eliminated. Putin made numerous public statements laying out this line of argument before 24 February, 2022. Other leaders, including the defense minister, the foreign minister, the deputy foreign minister, and Moscow's ambassador to Washington also emphasized the centrality of NATO expansion for causing the crisis over Ukraine. Sergei Lavrov, the foreign minister, made this point succinctly at a press conference on 14 January, 2022. Lavrov says "'The key to everything is the guarantee "'that NATO will not expand eastward.' Substantial number of influential and highly regarded individuals in the West recognized before the war that NATO expansion, especially into Ukraine, would be seen by Russian leaders as a mortal threat and eventually would lead to disaster. William Burns, who was recently Joe Biden's head of the CIA, but he was the American ambassador to Moscow in April 2008 when the decision was made to bring Ukraine and Georgia into NATO, wrote a very famous memo that I'm sure some of you are familiar with to then Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. This is a quite remarkable memo, and I'm going to quote extensively from it. "'Ukrainian entry into NATO is the brightest "'of all red lines for the Russian elite, not just Putin. "'In more than two and a half years of conversations "'with key Russian players, from knuckle draggers "'in the dark recesses of the Kremlin "'to Putin's sharpest liberal critics, "'I have yet to find anyone who views Ukraine and NATO "'as anything other than a direct challenge "'to Russia's interests.' "'NATO,' he said, quote, "'would be seen as throwing down the strategic gauntlet. "'Today's Russia will respond. "'Russian-Ukrainian relations will go into a deep freeze. "'It will create fertile soil for Russian meddling "'in Crimea and Eastern Ukraine.'" This was written by Bill Burns in 2008. Burns was not the only Western policymaker in 2008 who understood that bringing Ukraine into NATO was fraught with danger. Both Angela Merkel, who was then the German chancellor, and French President Nicolas Sarkozy adamantly opposed moving forward to bring Ukraine into NATO. Merkel said, "'I was very sure that Putin is not going "'to just let that happen."'From his perspective, that would be a declaration of war.'" Putin saw Ukraine joining NATO as a mortal threat that could not be allowed and was willing to go to war to prevent it from happening, which he did, of course, in February of 2022. Relations between Europe and Russia will not only be poisonous, they will also be dangerous. The possibility of war will be ever-present. In other words, the threat of a major European war will not go away when the fighting in Ukraine stops. Russian victory in Ukraine, would be a stunning defeat for Europe. Or to put it in slightly different words, it would be a stunning defeat for NATO, which has been deeply involved in the Ukraine conflict since it started. The political fights, some will question the future of NATO, given that it failed to check Russia, the country that most European leaders describe as a mortal threat. Threats to the EU aside, the great reduction in the flow of gas and oil to Europe since the war started has seriously hurt the major economies of Europe and slowed down growth in the overall Eurozone. General Observations The Ukraine war has been a disaster. It has had catastrophic consequences for Ukraine. It has poisoned relations between Europe and Russia for the foreseeable future. It has made Europe a more dangerous place. It has also caused serious economic and political harm inside Europe, and badly damaged transatlantic relations. Most European leaders, and I'm sure most people in the various European publics, will blame Putin for causing the war, and thus for its terrible consequences. But they are wrong. The war could have been avoided if the West had not decided to bring Ukraine into NATO, or even if it had backed off from that commitment once the Russians made their opposition clear. Had that happened, Ukraine would almost certainly be intact today within its pre-2014 borders, and Europe would be more stable and more prosperous. Crimea would still be part of Ukraine. ***Professor John J. Mearsheimer, the R. Wendell Harrison Distinguished Service Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago and a globally recognized expert in international relations.
