Dear friends; following the NATO Summit in Ankara—which symbolized the decline of Western dominance—we gather here in a meeting representing the rising new civilization and humanity’s universal yearning for peace. The experiences of the 20th century demonstrate that the danger of war escalates during periods when global economic and military balances shift. The United States, which produced 50% of the global economy in the 1950s, saw its share fall to 25% by 2000, to 17% in 2026, and according to projections, it will contract further to 11% by 2030. Conversely, China’s share grew from 6% in 2000 to 27% in 2026, and is projected to reach 44% by 2030. The reign of the US dollar and its exploitative system have collapsed. Deprived of its economic hegemony, the US faces two choices: either adapt to a modest role or resort to violence.
The US activated the option of violence through its aggressive posture toward Iran, yet it hit a wall against global realities and suffered a clear defeat. Contrary to the shallow analyses of our Foreign Ministry claiming that “Iran failed to do its homework,” it is the Turkish government itself that failed its homework, blinded by its alignment with NATO. The US has pointed its barrels directly at Türkiye across the Eastern Mediterranean, the Aegean, Cyprus, and the Black Sea. Türkiye cannot submit to the threats emanating from the US-Israel-Greece-Greek Cypriot axis. Leadership that remains silent while Turkish vessels face missile threats in the Black Sea cannot represent the nation’s resolve.
Türkiye stands as the rebel and the “stranger” within NATO. On the night of July 15-16, Türkiye fought against the underground NATO network operating through FETÖ, purging thousands of NATO loyalists from its military and state apparatus and imprisoning Gladio generals. In this context, embracing NATO aligns directly with embracing FETÖ. To counter the US-Israeli naval and nuclear threats in the Eastern Mediterranean, Türkiye urgently requires allies with formidable naval power and nuclear deterrence.
The sole force capable of preserving global peace and halting this war coalition is a firm alliance among Türkiye, Russia, China, and Iran (TRÇİ). The security of China’s primary energy routes also depends on the Strait of Hormuz and the Suez Canal—our immediate geography. Inheriting profound imperial legacies and revolutionary traditions, these four nations are objectively compelled to join forces. This alliance is not merely a regional necessity, but a historical responsibility to safeguard the destiny of all humanity.
