On Dec. 10-11, the European Council met, discussing among other topic, EU-Turkey relations in light of recent developments and the October conclusions.

/2
In October, the Council concluded that they would pursue better EU-Turkey relations

/3
Since then, the international community has been outraged by Turkish actions in Cyprus, France has withdrawn its diplomatic actors from Turkey, and #Erdogan has signalled opposition to "overt attacks on our nation"

/4
The scene has been set, now meet our speakers: @SenemAydnDzgit from @sabanciu and @ipc_ipm, and Wolfgang Wessels from @UniCologne, who is Project Coordinator of #VIADUCT_EU

/5
"One major assumption on which Turkish foreign policy in the East Mediterranean builds on is the assumption that EU cannot act as a whole, and that the EU is not yet ready to burn all bridges with Turkey"

- @SenemAydnDzgit from @sabanciu/@ipc_ipm

/6
"The EU can act, but sometimes it takes time to build up this action over time. Therefore there is possibility for the situation to escalate further throughout 2021"

- @SenemAydnDzgit from @sabanciu/@ipc_ipm

/7
"The EU will work with the new administration in the USA, highlighting that Turkey will be a key factor in the renewed EU-US relations in the context of a #Biden administration"

- @SenemAydnDzgit from @sabanciu/@ipc_ipm

/8
"My analysis is short: let's meet again in March, because very little has changed"

- Wolfgang Wessels, #VIADUCT_EU Project Coordinator, @UniCologne

/9
"The most important thing was the request of work from the HR/VP to investigate the prospects of relations. When you don't want to take a decision, you ask someone to produce a study."

- Wolfgang Wessels, #VIADUCT_EU Project Coordinator, @UniCologne

/10
After these initial contributions from our two speakers, we now move to a Q&A Session

Get your questions in to the #Zoom Chat!

/11
After an interesting and dynamic Q&A session, this #VIADUCT_EU comes to an end

Thank you to our participants @SenemAydnDzgit from @sabanciu/@ipc_ipm and Wolfgang Wessels from @UniCologne

On 17 December, tune in for another Guest Lecture!

So let's see a show of hands: how many of you even knew Huber was digging into the Clinton Foundation? While he was assisting Horowitz in his digging into the FISC/Steele Dossier/Fusion GPS/Perkins Coie/DNC/Hillary campaign stuff?


I'm sure Huber is coming to DC *only* to discuss Clinton Foundation things with Meadows and his committee.

He for certain, like, won't be huddling with Horowitz or that new guy, Whitaker while he's in town. That would NEVER HAPPEN. [wink wink wink!] 😉

I just spent a year and a half telling you they will SHOW YOU what they are REALLY DOING when they are READY.

Not before.

No matter how much whining is done about it.

I'm exhausted but it's worth it.

Now you know why they're f**king TERRIFIED of Whitaker, the closer tapped by Trump to come in late for the hysterical fireworks that will ensue soon.

Look who's suddenly fund raising for his legal defen- er, I mean, ha ha - his reelection campaign!
