Erdogans Türkei werden schöne Augen aus Moskau gemacht, vom früheren russischen Außenminister Igor Ivanov. Und wenn man schon dabei ist, kann man auch gleich Putins Eurasien von Lissabon bis Wladiwostok errichten, und zwar indem man die vierzig Jahre alte europäische Sicherheitsarchitektur mit der Helsinki-Schlussakte und der Charta von Paris erst einmal über den Haufen wirft. Such ideas and moods are easy to understand – the two nations with their rich histories, great cultures, economic potentials and geopolitical ambitions can hardly accept the position of being nothing more but a part of the “European periphery”. They claim – and rightly so – more central places in the emerging system of international relations of the XXI century. And they are not likely to agree to an inferior status that Brussels might want to offer them. ... In my view, the time has come to start working together on a new European – or even a Euro-Atlantic architecture that would go beyond both the European Union and NATO. In the economic dimension we need to move in the direction of a Eurasian common market from Lisbon to Vladivostok. In the security dimension we have to get back to the Paris Charter of 1990 and the Helsinki Act of 1975 modifying the provisions of the two documents to serve European security needs on the XXI century. ecfr.eu/article/commentary_russia_turkey_and_the_vision_of_greater_europe400
