Information about Jamal Khashoggi, a writer, journalist, and columnist for the Washington Post, who disappeared after entering the Consulate General of Saudi Arabia (SA) in Istanbul on October 2, 2018, is being received from the Western press. Despite the fact that assumptions about his murder in the Consulate General are gradually increasing, it is impossible to hear anything in the live programs of the Turkish TV channels, but "the Turkish delegation has entered, the Turkish delegation has come out."
The authorities, keeping cool the first days after the incident, emphasize the "importance of close cooperation with the brotherly country of Saudi Arabia" to clarify the fate of the journalist. Trump, considering that it was a good moment, is once again preparing to pluck Riyadh like a goose.
An attempt by Turkey and the Saudi Arabia to create a "joint commission" (this idea dominates in society) is regarded as shifting from empty to empty, they say, "has a commission yet revealed anything?".
In such a chaos, the departure from Turkey of the Consul General of Saudi Arabia in Istanbul two days ago further increased suspicions. Although the speaker of the ruling party, Omer Celik, talks about the "inviolability of the General Consul" and tries to justify this in the Vienna Conventions, anyone familiar with the Vienna Convention of 1963 (international document regulating consular missions) knows that consular missions do not have immunity.
Therefore, there is nothing reprehensible in the questioning by the Turkish Procurator"s Office of the staff of the Consulate General of the Saudi Arabia. However, before the departure of the Consul General of the Saudi Arabia from Turkey, the most important issue to which particular attention should be paid is J. Khashoggi"s concerns about his fate. So, having come to the entrance to the consulate building at noon on October 2, before entering it, he told his bride Hatice Cengiz to inform Yasin Aktay, (Advisor to President Recep Erdogan - ed.) and the Turkish-Arab Media Union if he would not leave for a long time.
Why did J. Khashoggi asked Hatija for this? Did he expect that if problems arise in the consulate, Professor Yasin Aktay (now the deputy chairman of the ruling Justice and Development Party in Turkey) would quickly intervene and solve them, or did the journalist suspect that something would happen to him, and Aktay would make a fuss?
Logically, if it was necessary to make a fuss, his bride could do it leaving the corresponding post in Turkey"s social media. Logically, J. Khashoggi believed that if something happened to him in the Consulate General, the Turkish politician would be able to help him (we don"t know if Professor Yasin Aktay promised such help to him).
As a member of the Turkish parliament, Yasin Aktay was known as a politician who has very close ties with Arab countries, especially Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Undoubtedly, J. Khashoggi also knew about this, and instructed his bride to appeal to Professor Yasin Aktay, remaining in a desperate situation.
Further, according to the same logic, another question arises: could Professor Aktay, who knew Arab countries very well, assume that a tragedy could happen to J. Khashoggi in the Consulate General? It is impossible to answer this question positively. Therefore, the investigation of the incident should continue at the international level, and continue to exert pressure.
