THE LANTERNS OF THE USA DOES NOT LIGHT ON THIS COUNTRY
Youth Union of Turkey (TGB), held a press statement against US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who performs the provocative visit to Ecumenical Patriarchate by ignoring the Republic of Turkey. Mike Pompeo came to Istanbul yesterday evening and announced that he will hold talks with the Greek Patriarch on "religious freedoms". Making a press statement in front of the Greek Patriarchate, President of TGB Yıldırım Gençer stated that “The USA is clearly attempting to empower a Vatican and Pope from the Christian church from Fener” and stated that the USA violated Lausanne and the Turkish Constitution.
“This place is not no longer a place of worship, but a CIA Office”
In the statement, Gençer said “The intention of the USA is clear. This visitation ignores Turkey's sovereignty, and overthrows the government of Turkey to strengthen ‘democracy front. It is part of the plan. It is an extension of Joe Biden's words that we will support the ‘persecuted’ Kurds and the opposition, hostile to Erdogan. We call out to the Fener Greek Patriarchate and warn. You are at the point that Atatürk called 'the center of corruption and mischief' 100 years ago.”
Here is the full text of Yıldırım Gençer's statement:
Dear Press Members,
Our Great Nation,
US Secretary of State Pompeo has set foot in Istanbul today to show off his imperial arrogance. This visit to the Patriarchate is an attempt was made sedition against Turkey's sovereignty. Pompeo visits 7 countries, but only in Turkey, he comes to see a priest instead of state officials. Does US interlocutors a Greek priest in Turkey, which takes a salary from Turkey and is also a citizen of this country?
Moreover, Pompeo calls the church-affiliated to that Fatih District Governorate the "Ecumenical Patriarchate". What is ecumenıcy? It means universal. This means that “I am not affiliated with the Republic of Turkey, I do not know the laws of Turkey, not only in Turkey, the world's 300 million Orthodox.”
The USA is openly attempting to get a Vatican and Pope out of the Christian church in Fener. This threatens Turkey's sovereignty. It violates Lausanne and the constitution. It provokes the Crusader Alliance with religious strife. Here we are calling Pompeo: This is not the Byzantine, the Republic of Turkey. This is not Constantinople, but Istanbul. Here your colonial laws do not pass. Your colonial Tanzimat law will not pass here. Your false claims of ecumenical will not pass here. And our Greek Orthodox citizens, are citizens of the Republic of Turkey. The USA is also hostile to them.
This visit is an extension of Joe Biden's words that we will support the persecuted Kurds and the opposition, hostile to Erdoğan.
In addition, the USA is the last country that will try to teach freedom to other countries.
What the USA understands from freedom of religion is the freedom to rain bombs on mosques and to kill millions of Muslims without minding if they are elder or children.
The freedoms of the USA are the freedom to murder blacks, Muslims, Native Americans in its own country, and to strangle George Floyd.
In the report of the freedom of religion of the USA, Iraq writes in bloody letters, Vietnam writes, Afghanistan writes, Syria writes.
The freedom of religion of the USA is the freedom to the bloody coup attempts of the heinous terrorist organization FETÖ.
As Turkish youth, as Turkey Youth Union We denounce this imperialist hypocrisy!
Why does the US resort to this arrogance? Because it loses. The USA is a monster with only one tooth left.
The USA has lost in northern Syria. Our soldiers buried the PKK-PYD, which the US calls "my armed power", on the field.
It lost in Azerbaijan. Its puppet Pashinyan was disgraced. In the words of the victorious President Aliyev from the occupied Nagorno-Karabakh, he was "fired like a dog."
He lost in Cyprus. Mustafa Akıncı was buried in the chest. Cyprus has become the fortress of our Blue Homeland with the Presidency of Ersin Tatar, who took the flag of Rauf Denktaş. It also loses in the Eastern Mediterranean. The Crusader Alliance, which he established with revenge exercises, crashed into the Turkish navy rock. Imperialist collaborators in Turkey make fields to these provocations. We call out to the Fener Greek Patriarchate and warn. You are at the point that Atatürk called 'the center of corruption and mischief' 100 years ago. This place is no longer a place of worship, but a CIA Office. The Fener Patriarch, who declared himself "ecumenical", talks to FETO on July 15 and enters the US chain of command in Ukraine. However, in the War of Independence, we have Pope Eftins who raised their flags against the invaders and separatist foci such as Blue Mira. Today, we have Turkish citizens of different beliefs and origins who are aware of imperialist provocations. The foundation of the Turkish nation has been shattered by the struggle for independence. The motto of the Turkish nation is that “how happy is the one who says I'm a Turk” and it includes all our citizens.
This geography is the gate of civilizations. The children of the Turkish nation are the children of Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror, who carried the Christian civilization heritage that he took over with the conquest of Istanbul. Here, there is only one focus behind the plans to incite Turks against Kurds, Sunni against Alevi, Christians against Muslims: the USA. But these ethnic, religious, and sectarian provocations have not kept up until this time, and will never stop from now on. We broke these plans, buried the USA in the Crusader map, which he called BOP(Greater Middles East Project).
The Dream of the Crusades, which he now attempts as “ecumenical”, will also be the nightmare of US imperialism.
Yıldırım Gençer
(6th Term) President of TGB
