Turkey's most important 'export product' and Germany
A major wound for the present that could turn gangrenous at any moment, but a great opportunity for the future: What could it be?
How so?
Let's start with an example: It was announced that as of the end of last year, the number of Turkish citizens among the more than 120 thousand foreign physicians working in Germany was 3 thousand 532. By the end of 2026, this figure must have increased even further. This is undoubtedly an insignificant number for Germany, where nearly 600 thousand doctors work in total. But what about for Turkey? In the meantime, let us also recall that the number of doctors who came from Syria, or rather, who fled their country, is 7 thousand 959. This means that around 8 thousand Syrian physicians are healing Germany's wounds. Let us evaluate this figure while keeping in mind Syria, which has been reduced to ruins and the Middle Ages. Very well.
Well, doctors aside, there is a terrifying brain drain from Turkey to imperial centers in every field... In the technical field, especially in the IT sector, all that developed, qualified young workforce finds a way and manages to land in the Germany of Europe.
They are raised with the resources of their poor country and set out to grab a share of imperial wealth and escape the darkness of Turkey.
Anyway... How can we claim they are completely wrong?...
THE TRUTH BEHIND THE NUMBERS
These numbers can be diversified, it doesn't really matter. Turkey is tumbling down a cliff, and generations of young, trained labor are trying to "break free" from the darkening and the lack of a future in the country. The "Z Generation," whatever that may be, has learned very well since the successive coups of 1980 (September 12) and 2002 (November 3) how to prioritize their own interests and become captains who save their own ships by squeezing oil from a fly. It is understood that they have set their sights on Germany. But isn't that exactly what Berlin and Ankara wanted? It is...
However, Germany is the top choice not only because it is an advanced technology center, but also because it has a dense population of Turkish origin.
Still, let us look at the issue from the reverse.
Until 1980, if we look at it within the framework of an exaggerated generalization, didn't the republican generations, the generations with trained republican brainpower, always go abroad with the intention of returning? Our people have trained themselves to flee abroad, especially during the last quarter-century of AKP rule (the "Abdulhamid II era"). To become rich... Not to return and serve the homeland...
The first generation of the republic, whom we would count in the intellectual category, and the generations under their influence, also had the self-confidence to carry the great republican transformation abroad. Especially in the 1950s and 60s. We can make such a vague, foggy generalization.
REASONS FOR FLEEING TURKEY
The creative labor force, raised with the limited resources of the poor Turkish people, is fleeing abroad due to oppression and collapse. They are fleeing from the lack of a future, from the religious and nationalist darkness. With no intention of returning. They leave behind at most the "reality" of Afghanistan or Syria. That is what awaits Turkey.
It used to be the exact opposite.
We have arrived there: Turkey's most important export product is not its army—Soros-style fools don't understand these things—our real great wealth consists of well-trained young brains. It is painful: These people are now guests in Turkey, and this means the country is emptying out and becoming Afghanized or Syrianized.
It can be said that the qualified brains that would carry Turkey to enlightenment are leaving behind a graveyard, unless a republican power offensive can be carried out together with socialists/communists...
We can also evaluate the flight we are talking about with our "hidden history" accumulation in Germany: When we take into account the "unofficial historical scraps" that have always viewed Turkey as an "anomaly," we see that the Turkish-speaking social density in Europe is now seeking a complete break from Turkey.
You can now only call such people back to Turkey for a great social transformation, to rebuild an egalitarian, public-oriented, planned, secular, and modern republic.
But there is one more small issue. A matter that contains hope...
Yes, the young generation is opening a major wound by fleeing. Agreed. But if they return during that great change of power, a great social leap will occur. And they will come... The call of revolution is incredibly powerful.
We called this blood loss a "bleeding wound for the present," but for the future, for a "leftist Turkey" that is pro-labor rather than identity-based/nationalist/religious, this is a huge opportunity. A massive resource.
There is also that side of the matter.
