Summary/Abstract: Every year starts with new hopes, great expectations, and efforts to forget bad memories of the past. While nobly intended, I feel that we only change the calendar and begin, once again, counting down each day until the New Year. Unfortunately, this feeling of mine failed to change once again due to two crises which broke out just next door of Turkey. One of them was the gas dispute between Russia and Ukraine, which has become a tradition, and the other one was Israel’s Gaza operation, the effects of which were felt even in the Davos Summit. Even though the second one is not in the framework of this article, I still/continue to wish a long lasting peace would come to the Middle East, bringing stability and prosperity to the region.
