Pinar Dinc @pinardinch.bsky.social · 13/06/2025So perhaps we should all abandon academia and become diplomats instead — simply repeating the official state line. If that’s what’s expected of us, let it be said clearly, so we at least know where we stand?! 100
Pinar Dinc @pinardinch.bsky.social · 13/06/2025In a region as complex as the Middle East, shifting politics and interests can turn today’s allies into tomorrow’s adversaries. As we’ve seen in Syria, those once on terror lists are now welcomed at the door. 110
