Anti India Yunus plans big conspiracy against India, may join hands with this country to open weapon factories, not Pakistan, China, country is... Dhaka: Amid the ongoing tensions between India and neighbouring Bangladesh, Turkey is going to enter into a strategic defence partnership with Dhaka. As per reports, a top Turkish defence industry official will visit the Middle East country next week, and during the same period, both countries can hold important talks to expand the defence-industry partnership. People familiar with the development have said that Haluk Gorgun, head of Turkey's Defence Industry Agency (SSB), will visit Dhaka on July 8, on a one-day visit. He is scheduled to meet Chief Advisor of the Interim Government Muhammad Yunus. Is Mohammad Yunus Preparing To Enter A Strategic Defence Partnership With Turkey? It is speculated that Mohammad Yunus is preparing to enter into a strategic defence partnership with Turkey. Notably, the Middle East country helped Pakistan against India during the recent conflict. Haluk Gorgun's visit to Dhaka can not be seen as a normal formal meeting, but through this, Ankara is planning to strengthen its presence in Bangladesh at the strategic level. As per a report by the Economic Times, Gorgun is scheduled to meet Bangladesh Army Chief General Waqar-uz-Zaman, Navy Chief Admiral M. Nazmul Hasan and Air Chief Marshal Hasan Mahmud Khan. Why Turkey Struggled to Gain Ground in Bangladesh Under Sheikh Hasina? During Sheikh Hasina's tenure, Turkey did not get any chance to set its foot in the country. But now under the Mohammad Yunus-led government the country has a chance as he supports Erdogan's 'Caliphate rule'. The report states that Bangladesh Investment Development Authority (BIDA), which is an apex investment promotion agency, is planning to set up defence industrial complexes in Chittagong and Narayanganj in collaboration with Turkish defence companies. Notably, BIDA Executive Chairman Chowdhury Ashiq Mahmud Bin Harun recently completed a five-day trip to Turkey. During the visit, he held talks with major Turkish defence companies. It is worth mentioning that in recent years, Turkish companies have gained global recognition in drone technology, radar systems, missile development and aircraft manufacturing. Does Turkey Want To Be In A Position To Directly Challenge India? It is believed that Pakistan's friend Turkey, by setting up defence factories in Bangladesh, wants to be in a position to directly challenge India. The Middle East country also wants to sell its defence materials in Asia and African countries. Bangladesh also wants aerospace collaboration with Turkey. Following a meeting between Bangladeshi Foreign Affairs Advisor Mohammad Tauhid Hussain and Turkish Aerospace Chief Mehmet Demirolu at the Antalya Diplomacy Forum in April 2025, Mohammad Yunus is pursuing an aerospace agreement with Ankara. During the meeting, both the sides possibilities of cooperation in the field of advanced fighter aircraft, training aircraft and satellite systems. Does Bangladesh Want To Become Turkey's Strategic Partner? Bangladesh's evolving relationship with Turkey signals a shift beyond a simple buyer-seller dynamic towards a strategic partnership. This development, alongside China's growing influence, suggests Turkey aims to exert pressure on India through Bangladesh. Furthermore, the involvement of the United States in a potential plan to separate Myanmar into a Christian state, with Bangladesh's possible assistance, indicates Bangladesh is becoming a key player in regional geopolitical manoeuvring. This situation raises concerns that Bangladesh could become a battleground for competing global interests, potentially exploited by nations opposed to India.

Nutella Fans Brace to Pay More As Frost Hits Turkish Hazelnut Harvest
First olive oil, then cocoa and coffee. Now a fresh supply squeeze is set to hit another food pleasure - the hazelnuts that go into making the chocolaty Nutella spread. Wholesale prices in Turkey, which accounts for around 65% of global hazelnut output, have jumped by around 30% since April following the country's worst spring frost in more than a decade. And they are expected to continue rising, according to data from agricultural intelligence firm Expana. "Fluctuations in Turkish supply and pricing ripple through the entire market," the International Nut and Dried Fruit Council, an umbrella body for the industry, said. Some alternative supply is available from smaller producers Italy, the US and Chile, "though not enough to fully offset Turkey's dominance." Some hazelnuts farmers have lost 50%-100% of their crop, according to Turkey's National Hazelnut Council. Turkey accounts for around 65% of global hazelnut output. That could be bad news for the world's biggest buyer, Italy's Ferrero SpA, which takes around a quarter of Turkey's crop to make products like Ferrero Rocher chocolates and Nutella. Hazelnuts constitute 13% of the spread's ingredients, and it produces millions of jars each year. Weather events including the frost "can have an impact" on Turkish production, the confectionery maker said in a statement, but added that that it didn't expect disruption to supplies, citing alternative sources from Italy, Chile, and the US. It's yet another reminder of how vulnerable the world's food supplies - from treats such as Nutella to essentials like wheat - remain to climate change. Prices of coffee and cocoa have soared - buffeted by unpredictable weather. Olive oil supplies have been hit as heat waves across southern Europe have intensified. Brazil, one of the world's top crop exporters, was hit by the worst drought in its history last year. Turkish Hazelnut Price Jumps After Frost Hits Harvest "In recent years, especially due to climate change, temperatures have been high in the winter months and fruit trees have been waking up early," the head of the country's Agricultural Engineers Association was reported as saying. "Therefore, early spring frosts, which we did not talk about much in previous years, have now started to pose a major risk for fruit growing." Some farmers growing hazelnuts at the highest altitudes have lost between 50% to 100% of their crop, according to Cem Senocak, who heads the National Hazelnut Council. Political Cost The damage to the hazelnuts could also pose a political problem for President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Around 450,000 families depend on the crop for their livelihoods, concentrated in the northern Black Sea provinces that are a key stronghold of support for Erdogan, who hails from the region. The president personally announces the price that the state grain board will pay farmers each year, and disappointing prices have, at times, translated into lost votes at elections. The unseasonable cold snap also risks pushing up Turkey's food prices more broadly, the central bank warned in its latest inflation report, complicating efforts to rein in 35% price growth. Seeking Profits Still, some investors are looking for ways to profit from the shortage. Finnish asset manager Evli said it has added Turkish hazelnut processing company Balsu Gida Sanayi ve Ticaret AS to its Emerging Frontier fund, predicting that wholesale prices for the nut could rise fivefold over the next year based on an analysis of the impact of previous frosts and growing pest infestations. Turkey's main exporter group has already slashed its forecast for this year's harvest - which runs from August to September - by a fifth to 609,000 tons. "There simply is no place to get these missing hazelnuts from at scale until the next year's harvest in Turkey in August 2026," Burton Flynn and Ivan Nechunaev, investment advisers to the fund, wrote in a blog post last month.

Israel has Iron Dome, Arrow, THAAD, Russia has S-400, US planning Golden Dome..., but what is India planning? Army deputy chief makes big statement
(Akashteer: An Indian Air Defence Control & Reporting System developed by Bharat Electronics Limited/PTI Image) New Delhi: Since the success of Operation Sindoor, the Indian Army has embarked on a mission to modify, improve, and rework the already advanced weapon systems and military hardware. During Operation Sindoor, the supremacy and invincibility of the Indian Armed Forces was clearly visible. Now, the arsenal will be refurbished to make it even more lethal and dangerous for the enemy. What is Indian Army planning? During the four-day clash with Pakistan, the Indian Armed Forces were directly pitted against Chinese and Turkish weaponries which it nullified with ease. This has proven to be a valuable experience for India as it studied the weapons supplied by China and Turkey. Now, the forces are crystal clear about their next mission which is to identify the deficiencies and work upon them. This will help India to dictate the terms to the enemy in case of a full-blown war with Pakistan. What did Indian Army say on Operational Readiness? Deputy Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen Rahul R Singh, while addressing a gathering at an event 'New Age Military Technologies' organised by FICCI, highlighted that India needs to ramp up its preparations on several counts, including C4 ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) and air defence grid. 'An important lesson is the importance of C4 ISR and civil-military functions. There is a lot to be done as far as this is concerned. When DGMO-level talks were on, Pakistan actually was mentioning that we know that such and such vector is primed and ready for action. We would request you to perhaps pull it back. They were getting live inputs from China. That is one place we really need to move fast,' said Lt Gen Singh. What is C4 ISR? C4ISR stands for Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance. It is a military term that refers to a collection of systems and technologies designed to enhance situational awareness, streamline communication, and ensure seamless coordination among various units, ultimately enabling informed and effective decision-making during combat operations. Lt General Singh mentioned how Pakistan was getting help from Chinese satellites. China has deployed several reconnaissance/ surveillance satellites in the past few years compared to India while ISRO has to catch up with Beijing. How equipped is India compared to Israel and America? Israel has a strong air defence system that includes Irone dome, Arrow, David's Sling and America's THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defence) while the United States is also preparing for a multi-layered air defence system named Golden Dome. As for India, given its vast area and location, it needs an air defence system capable of protecting the whole nation. Lieutenant General Rahul R Singh highlighted the need for a similar, rather more powerful air defence system that can take on both China and Pakistan. 'There is a need for a robust air defence system. Our population centres need to be protected. We don't have the luxury of Israel's Iron Dome and a number of other air defence systems. We don't have such a system as our country is vast and such things cost a lot of money. This time, our population centres were not quite addressed, but next time, we need to be prepared for that,' he said.
