Hybrid-politics


Tomorrow's Dutch elections and the Turkish interference few days ago gave a new concept in the global politics. Who pushed Turkish dominating political leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan in sending Turkey's Foreign Minister last Saturday to the Netherlands and not the next week, only he knows. The same goes and for the results of his political cunning and controversial political decision. The only certain is that he managed to intervene in a domestic political procedure without been invited.

Russia had also a similar role in the last US elections where for first time a different nation was mentioned as having an aspiring central role in a pure internal and institutional democratic function. Indeed Turkey has a strong presence in Europe with it's numerous citizens that play a dual role. While living in another nation define by their vote both Turkey elections and whichever other they participate in. It is really a mystery how this strong ethnic community will affect tomorrow's elections in Holland and the oncoming ones in Germany.

Maybe this was the reason that Turkey chose to interfere in another society as if Mr.Rutte behavior been unfavorable for Turkey they were expected to look for other candidates no matter their orientation. To them that would go even more furious in case Mr.Rutte didn't handle this crisis so well and determined as he did. In any interpretation the experiment succeeded and it will be repeated soon.

Like so many things politics are not any more "business as usual". This combination of old World structure and the modern values and networks give them another framework shaped in many dimensions as our modern World. A resistance showed up to what for decades was considered the sacred way to define the destiny of Europe's societies through old fashioned repetitive methods and certain political elites. France's President candidate Mr. Fillon is another case where what people seem to prefer as a favorite choice is attacked with all means so as to be diminished and make him withdraw his candidacy. Neither Mrs Le Pen nor Mr. Macron seem to bother the central political system that unfortunately for peoples granted to them insofar only misery and pain, despair and dissatisfaction.


Tomorrow the dark side of the moon seeks for shedding its dark shadow in Europe by pulling the first ace. A start of an effort to dismantle what WWII gave birth as European Union before leaving it free to its inhabitants.  If this ace doesn't come up finally then shadow goes to France for a second try. Brexit and Greece are following with Germany the last shot in an endless and vain effort to block a sitting Chancellor to lead for freedom and prosperity of societies...
