Analyse de la Situation en Turquie après la Tentative de Coup d’Etat

Ce podcast est délivré par Dorothee Schmid. Dans la nuit du 15 au 16 juillet 2016, une faction de militaires dissidents a tenté un coup d’Etat contre le tout-puissant président turc Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Son échec a ouvert la voie à une reprise en main très sévère sous le slogan de la lutte contre le terrorisme : les partisans de Fethullah Gülen, prédicateur dissident exilé aux Etats-Unis et tenu responsable du coup, sont pourchassés systématiquement. Les relations avec Washington se compliquent, et l’Union européenne craint que l’accord trouvé avec Ankara sur les réfugiés syriens ne soit remis en cause. Quelques semaines plus tard, l’armée turque entre en Syrie avec pour combattre Daesh, mais aussi les Kurdes du PYD. La Turquie se rapproche de la Russie et d’Israël. L’agenda d’Erdogan semble excessivement chargé, dans un contexte de tension intérieure et extérieure extrême. Combien de temps tiendra cet équilibre précaire ?

    Brazil's election poses a question that extends well beyond Latin America: how much freedom does a country retain to define its international role when external pressure collides with domestic political exhaustion? For the Global South, the answer matters more than any foreign government's preference regarding the next occupant of the presidential palace. Strategic autonomy remains fragile if every change of government puts a country's freedom of action back up for negotiation. ...

    L’incident du vol FZ1073 entre Dubaï et Tel-Aviv ne permet encore aucune attribution définitive. Il constitue en revanche un révélateur utile : à mesure que la sûreté aérienne ferme les voies classiques d’intrusion, la menace cherche à emprunter des voies alternatives en exploitant les personnes, les prestataires et les systèmes auxquels l’écosystème aéronautique doit nécessairement accorder sa confiance. ...

    The Mecca Joint Défense Agreement: A New Geometry of Middle Eastern Power?
    Authors

    September 30, 2026
    On August 7, 2026, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan signed the Mecca Joint Défense Agreement, a collective-defense pact widely compared to NATO’s Article 5. This essay argues that the comparison is misleading. Mecca borrows NATO’s language of solidarity without yet possessing NATO’s institutional machinery, and the Houthi offensive against Saudi Arabia in September 2026 provided an early and revealing test of what the agreement actually means in practice. Neither Pakistan nor Turk ...

    You can imagine how often I've been asked to comment on where the Brazilian economy is headed after the election. With polls pointing to a runoff on October 25 and currently showing a statistical tie between Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Flávio Bolsonaro in vote simulations, I'm naturally asked about their economic programs and about the country's relations with the United States. ...

    This paper was initially published in French on the website of the Fondation Jean-Jaurès. There was a historic decline in Official Development Assistance (ODA) in 2025. Foreign aid to developing countries from members of the OECD-DAC fell by some 23%, the largest decline on record and the second consecutive annual decline. Aid to Africa fell by more than 25%. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) described this decline in ODA to Africa as “a shock like no other.” It differ ...

    Since around 2010, it has been known that the Eastern Mediterranean is a new gas province. Gas resources have indeed been discovered offshore four countries or territories: Egypt, Israel, Cyprus and Gaza. Two of them have become producers and exporters of natural gas, Egypt and Israel. Off the coast of Gaza, the Gaza Marine gas field has never been developed, and it is highly unlikely to be developed anytime soon given the very high tensions between the State of Israel and Hamas. By ...
