(Zaman-Turkey) Orhan Kemal Cengiz - When Turkey starts to use international law to deal with Israel, there is a great chance that the same mechanisms will be used against Turkey. Despite calls from the EU, Turkey does not recognize the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court because it is afraid that three major issues would be brought to the court. The day Turkey recognizes the jurisdiction of the ICC, Cyprus may bring a case alleging that Turkey has committed the crime of aggression due to the border changes of 1974. Likewise, the case of the missing Greek soldiers on the island in 1974 could be taken to the ICC. In addition, there is a risk for Turkey that it may face some criminal complaints in relation to the Kurdish issue. To what extent could a Turkey that is unable to confront the crimes committed against the Kurds in the past offer a remedy for the Palestinian people? Given that Turkey is unable to try the security officers who burned 3,500 Kurdish villages in the 1990s, is it possible that it could sincerely hold Israel accountable? 2013-03-15 00:00:00Full Article
