No: 300, 30 September 2022, Press Release Regarding Russia’s Annexation of Some Regions of Ukraine

Türkiye did not recognize Russia’s annexation of Crimea in an illegitimate referendum in 2014 and has emphasized its strong support to Ukraine’s territorial integrity, independence and sovereignty on every occasion.

In accordance with this stance adopted in 2014, we reject Russia’s decision to annex the Donetsk, Luhansk, Herson and Zaphorizhia regions of Ukraine.

This decision, which constitutes a grave violation of the established principles of international law, cannot be accepted.

We reiterate our support to the resolution of this war, the severity of which keeps growing, based on a just peace that will be reached through negotiations.

« La communauté internationale devrait assumer plus de responsabilités pour ranimer le processus diplomatique entre l’Ukraine et la Russie »

Lors de la conférence de presse conjointe tenue après le sommet tripartite avec le Président ukrainien Zelensky et le Secrétaire général des Nations Unies Guterres, le Président Erdoğan a dit : « Lors du sommet tripartite, nous avons examiné les possibilités de transformer l’atmosphère positive créée par l’accord d’Istanbul en une paix durable. Nous avons particulièrement souligné que la communauté internationale devrait assumer plus de responsabilités pour ranimer le processus diplomatique. »

Le Président Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, le Président ukrainien Volodymyr Zelensky et le Secrétaire général des Nations Unies Antonio Guterres ont tenu une conférence de presse conjointe après le sommet tripartite au Palais Potochki à Lviv.

Le Président Erdoğan a déclaré que lors de la réunion bilatérale avec le Président ukrainien Zelensky, ils ont examiné les relations turco-ukrainiennes qui sont au niveau du partenariat stratégique dans toutes leurs dimensions, et a poursuivi : « Nous avons discuté des possibilités de faire progresser notre coopération et notre solidarité dans les conditions actuelles. Bien sûr, la guerre, qui dure depuis environ six mois, a été le sujet principal de nos entretiens. À cette occasion, j’ai une fois de plus souligné notre soutien à l’intégrité territoriale et à la souveraineté de l’Ukraine. »

« NOUS NE SOUHAITONS PAS UN NOUVEAU TCHERNOBYL »

Le Président Erdogan, exprimant de nouveau sa profonde tristesse pour la perte de vies humaines, a dit : « J’ai également présenté mes condoléances au nom de notre pays et de notre nation après l’attaque au missile contre un dortoir à Kharkiv la nuit dernière, au cours de laquelle neuf civils ont été tués et 35 personnes blessées. Nous avons exprimé notre inquiétude face aux affrontements en cours autour de la centrale nucléaire de Zaporijia. Nous ne souhaitons pas un nouveau Tchernobyl. »

« En tant que Türkiye, d’une part, nous faisons des efforts pour mettre fin au conflit par une solution diplomatique et, d’autre part, nous avons été et continuons d’être aux côtés de nos amis ukrainiens, » a-t-il souligné en poursuivant : « Depuis le début de la guerre, nous avons envoyé 98 camions d’aide humanitaire pour répondre aux besoins humanitaires urgents du peuple ukrainien, et nous avons hébergé temporairement environ 325 mille Ukrainiens dans notre pays. »

« LE MONDE ENTIER A COMMENCE A RESSENTIR LES REFLETS POSITIFS DE L’ACCORD D’ISTANBUL »

En ce qui concerne le sommet tripartite effectué avec la participation du Secrétaire général de l’ONU Guterres, le Président Erdoğan a dit que le sommet était axé sur la manière de mettre fin à la guerre. « Comme vous le savez, il n’y a qu’un mois, nous, en tant que Nations Unies, Ukraine, Russie et Türkiye, avons fait un travail conjoint historique. Non seulement l’Ukraine mais, aussi le monde entier a commencé à ressentir les reflets positifs de l’accord d’Istanbul, qui a permis l’exportation en toute sécurité des céréales ukrainiennes vers les marchés mondiaux via la mer Noire. »

« Depuis le 1er août où l’accord a été mis en pratique, un total de 25 navires et environ 625 mille tonnes de céréales ukrainiennes ont été livrées aux marchés mondiaux, » a-t-il rappelé et a poursuivi : « Lors de nos entretiens aujourd’hui, nous avons discuté des mesures qui peuvent être prises pour accroître et maintenir les activités du mécanisme existant. Lors du sommet tripartite, nous avons également examiné les possibilités de transformer l’atmosphère positive créée par l’accord d’Istanbul en une paix durable. Nous avons particulièrement souligné que la communauté internationale devrait assumer plus de responsabilités pour ranimer le processus diplomatique. »

« Personnellement, je maintiens la conviction que la guerre finira à la table des négociations », a-t-il ajouté.

WKF Athletes Commission meets to discuss conflict in Ukraine

The Athletes’ Commission of the World Karate Federation today met to analyse the situation in Ukraine and the effects of the conflict on the athletes.

As the representative body of all the karate athletes, the commission discussed a common position to be presented to the WKF’s decision-making organisms.

Headed by WKF Athletes’ Commission chairman Davide Benetello and chaired by WKF President Antonio Espinós, the meeting had the commission members joining remotely, with WKF General Secretary Toshihisa Nagura and WKF CEO Sara Wolff also in attendance. Commission members Antonio Diaz of Venezuela, Douglas Brose of Brazil, Vasiliki Panetsidou of Greece, and Elisa Au of the USA participated in the meeting while Nguyen Hoang Ngan of Vietnam was absent due to health reasons and Stanislav Horuna of Ukraine could not participate due to the conflict in his country.

With the consequences of the Ukraine crisis as the main point of the agenda, the WKF representative body expressed their concerns for the wellbeing of athletes in Ukraine as procedures to safeguard all the athletes were analysed.

After a thorough discussion, the commission agreed on a common stance to be conveyed to the WKF Executive Committee in its meeting next week. A new gathering of the WKF Athletes Commission was scheduled for the coming days to discuss ways to provide special assistance to Ukrainian athletes.

WKF President Antonio Espinós said:

“While we hope to see a return to peace as rapidly as possible, the whole Karate family is deeply concerned by the situation of all the athletes who are affected by this conflict. We would like all of them to know that they have the whole support of the WKF and the Karate family.

“Athletes are not responsible for this crisis, and they should not be held accountable for political decisions of others. It is in our hands to do our utmost to protect each one of them and we will make our best to defend their interests at all times.”

Address by the President of the Russian Federation

February 21, 202222:35The Kremlin, Moscow

Address by the President of the Russian Federation.
Address by the President of the Russian Federation.
President of Russia Vladimir Putin: Citizens of Russia, friends,

 

My address concerns the events in Ukraine and why this is so important for us, for Russia. Of course, my message is also addressed to our compatriots in Ukraine.

The matter is very serious and needs to be discussed in depth.

The situation in Donbass has reached a critical, acute stage. I am speaking to you directly today not only to explain what is happening but also to inform you of the decisions being made as well as potential further steps.

I would like to emphasise again that Ukraine is not just a neighbouring country for us. It is an inalienable part of our own history, culture and spiritual space. These are our comrades, those dearest to us – not only colleagues, friends and people who once served together, but also relatives, people bound by blood, by family ties.

Since time immemorial, the people living in the south-west of what has historically been Russian land have called themselves Russians and Orthodox Christians. This was the case before the 17th century, when a portion of this territory rejoined the Russian state, and after.

It seems to us that, generally speaking, we all know these facts, that this is common knowledge. Still, it is necessary to say at least a few words about the history of this issue in order to understand what is happening today, to explain the motives behind Russia’s actions and what we aim to achieve.

So, I will start with the fact that modern Ukraine was entirely created by Russia or, to be more precise, by Bolshevik, Communist Russia. This process started practically right after the 1917 revolution, and Lenin and his associates did it in a way that was extremely harsh on Russia – by separating, severing what is historically Russian land. Nobody asked the millions of people living there what they thought.

Then, both before and after the Great Patriotic War, Stalin incorporated in the USSR and transferred to Ukraine some lands that previously belonged to Poland, Romania and Hungary. In the process, he gave Poland part of what was traditionally German land as compensation, and in 1954, Khrushchev took Crimea away from Russia for some reason and also gave it to Ukraine. In effect, this is how the territory of modern Ukraine was formed.

But now I would like to focus attention on the initial period of the USSR’s formation. I believe this is extremely important for us. I will have to approach it from a distance, so to speak.

I will remind you that after the 1917 October Revolution and the subsequent Civil War, the Bolsheviks set about creating a new statehood. They had rather serious disagreements among themselves on this point. In 1922, Stalin occupied the positions of both the General Secretary of the Russian Communist Party (Bolsheviks) and the People’s Commissar for Ethnic Affairs. He suggested building the country on the principles of autonomisation that is, giving the republics – the future administrative and territorial entities – broad powers upon joining a unified state.

Lenin criticised this plan and suggested making concessions to the nationalists, whom he called “independents” at that time. Lenin’s ideas of what amounted in essence to a confederative state arrangement and a slogan about the right of nations to self-determination, up to secession, were laid in the foundation of Soviet statehood. Initially they were confirmed in the Declaration on the Formation of the USSR in 1922, and later on, after Lenin’s death, were enshrined in the 1924 Soviet Constitution.

This immediately raises many questions. The first is really the main one: why was it necessary to appease the nationalists, to satisfy the ceaselessly growing nationalist ambitions on the outskirts of the former empire? What was the point of transferring to the newly, often arbitrarily formed administrative units – the union republics – vast territories that had nothing to do with them? Let me repeat that these territories were transferred along with the population of what was historically Russia.

Moreover, these administrative units were de facto given the status and form of national state entities. That raises another question: why was it necessary to make such generous gifts, beyond the wildest dreams of the most zealous nationalists and, on top of all that, give the republics the right to secede from the unified state without any conditions?

To be continued.
