Do Turks Silently Grasp Crimea?

Turkey extremely accurately expresses the foreign policy aspirations — to assign to itself a role of the regional leader in the Black Sea region. After Georgian-jugoosetinskoj wars in August 2008. Ankara was accepted to a construction of a mode of safety in pool of Black sea under the name «Caucasian pact of stability». Its purpose — not to allow other countries, and, first of all, Russia to expand an area of the influence on caucasus and in Crimea.

The Crimean peninsula — a nerve of Turkish foreign policy. Ankara gives to peninsula so great value that is not sorry for forces and the means put in its economy and educational system. Recently appointed the ambassador of Turkish Republic in Ukraine Ahmet Bjulent Merich at once prepared to go to Crimea for meetings with active workers of the Crimean Tatars that once again shows interest of Ankara to peninsula.

Already now Turkey occupies 6 place in lists of priority trading partners of Ukraine. Goods turnover between the countries has reached 2 billion dollars. The next ten years Turkish businessmen are ready to enclose in economic objects of peninsula of 20 billion dollars more. Thus the investment potential of Crimea is estimated by the little more than 20 billion dollars! And, the main line of Turkish investments is their opacity. It is possible not to doubt that the part of means will come into the hands of agents of Turkish influence on peninsula — in the budget of the Crimean Tatar organisations of extremist both semiextremist sense. And such it is enough. Among the most active — «Adalet», «Ahrar», Fund «Saar», «Zam-Zam», «Islamic party of Crimea». Many of them have not passed process of legal check in, but continue to work actively. By the way, Fund «Saar» was accused by the American authorities of communications with terrorists from «the Muslim brotherhood».

Amazes scope of Turkish humanitarian and economic intervention. The government of Turkey conducts purposeful work on active emigration of Turkish citizens by mixed marriages — tatarsko-Turkish and checheno-Tatar, without feeling sorry on it for means. So, in case of a birth of the third child such family receives a single government aid at a rate of 15 thousand dollars. Except Turkey, money is paid by welfare funds of the Arabian countries. The purpose — to achieve change of demographic conditions in Crimea.

The similar program is realised by Agency of the international help (USAID), also directed on increase in number of the Crimean Tatars. Foreign experts not without gloating predict considerable overweight of the Crimean Tatar population over slavic to 2015-2020y-s.

To Crimea more often Turkish religious figures and preachers come where for their activity the most hothouse conditions are created. In many respects thanks to the help from outside Turkic agency of cooperation and development at Ministerial council of Turkey (ТІКА), «Associations of the Crimean Tatar organisations of Turkey» and societies «Ukraine — Turkey». Only in the area of ТІКА it has been listed $3 million on realisation of 41st project. In Yalta the representative of the Ministry of religion of Turkey who is engaged in Islam expansion in peninsula territory legally works. The institute of twin-cities works also. The Crimean Bakhchisarai (the centre of a Crimean Tatar political life) the Turkish city of Bursa is. The Bakhchsarai area has fraternized with Istanbul. It all together creates unprecedented possibilities for expansion of presence of Ankara in Crimea.

But actions of Turkey are not limited only to humanitarian and economic spheres. The Turkish management looks narrowly at the Ukrainian power and plans to increase investments into power sector of Ukraine to $500-600 million

The European Union tries not to lag behind Turkey, by 2012 planning to increase financing of the programs in 10 times! The sector of work will be fixed to each EU Member State. Great Britain the economy will get, to the Netherlands — development of a civil society. EU has already started realisation of a series of projects in the field of cooperation with the Crimean mass-media. It is planned to adjust publishing house of Russian-speaking newspapers and magazines of the Proeuropean orientation. The purpose — levelling of the Russian influence in region, демонизация an image of Russia in eyes of Crimeans.

There is no aside Warsaw which persistently tries to reach arrangements on opening of consulate of Republic Poland in Simferopol. Poles always willingly acted the western projects in Ukraine. They wish to strengthen the strategic positions in region and now. The USA and EU consider Poles as the important allies in business of advancement of «democracy» in the CIS countries. For this purpose there is a fine occasion — protection of cultural originality of the radical people of Crimea.

«The people — to thought of God», — were learnt by known German philosopher Johann Gerder. Including, and the Crimean Tatar people with the rich culture, unique traditions (traditions of each people are unique for are inherent only in it to one). And that attempts of Crimean Tatar nationalists more hypocritically look and their curators to push off foreheads the people living on peninsula. Their purpose — to sow seeds of contention and to wait, while they will give the necessary shoots.
