Apocalyptic about Ankara’s grandiose policy, which surpasses Ottoman greats, is an article by the pro -government Turkish newspaper Daily Sabah that speaks of “Regional Hegemony in the Mediterranean”. Turkey wishes to redesign the map of the Mediterranean basin, from the straits of Gibraltar to Syria, a fantasy alliance with Spain, Portugal and the Maghreb countries as a counterweight to Greek -French cooperation, while the publication.
“The Turkish-Spanish power corridor can remodel the Mediterranean” typically refers to the article referring to “strategic sea tissue”, while also referring to Turkey’s close cooperation with Albania and Montenegro in marine defense initiatives.
The article in detail
“The Mediterranean basin has always been of enormous geopolitical significance as a crossroads of Europe, Africa and Asia. In the near future, the emergence of a new block of forces centered on the Mediterranean, positioned against the neo -colonial agenda of the West, has the potential to radically disturb the existing worldwide balance of forces. This emerging alliance has all the necessary assets: water, food, energy, defense, trade and tourism, required for self -sufficiency, without relying on external forces. Before explaining the possible Turkey-Spanish bloc as an alliance focused on the Mediterranean, it is important to first outline the current geopolitical landscape.
“Since 2025, the Eastern Mediterranean has become one of the most intense arena of competition in energy, defense and diplomatic influence. The maritime demarcation agreement signed between Turkey and Libya has become one of the main pillars of Turkey’s “Blue Homeland” strategy. This move has significantly disturbed the map of maritime sovereignty that Greece, the “Greek Cypriot administration”, Israel and France were trying to create in the region. “
“The Turkish-Livyi Economic Zone Agreement (EEZ), signed on November 27, 2019, redefined marine jurisdictions in the Eastern Mediterranean and served as a strategic agreement that legalized Turkey’s energy and political movements in the region. It includes both marine delimitation and defense cooperation. In addition, the emergence of new land and border security agreements between Turkey and Syria and the possibility of a future EEZ agreement in this direction is expanding Turkey’s diplomatic scope and demonstrating its growing energy and defensive potential, making it a significant power.
“In addition, as Turkey expands along the corridor from the Mediterranean to Africa, it has signed official EEZ agreements with Libya and the” Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus “(TRNC), securing strategic sovereignty in the Eastern Mediterranean. The Tanap-Tap energy corridor, LNG (liquefied natural gas) and defense with Qatar, co-operation for hydrocarbon exploration and naval infrastructure with Somalia, and joint initiatives of exploration and naval education initiatives (Naval Education) Turkey. In Somalia, Turkey grants the rights to exploration oil, gas and fishing. He is responsible for security at sea, naval education and coastal protection. With Sudan, there are agreements on security and energy cooperation. At the same time, negotiations with Algeria and Tunisia for energy and defense are moving forward. These developments demonstrate the creation of a strategic network from Turkey in accessing energy, offshore activities and maritime defense. In the summer of 2025, Turkey also entered the process of forming a joint committee with Egypt. “
“In the meantime, Greece, France and Israel have jointly acted to encircle Turkey in the Eastern Mediterranean, claiming maximalist maritime claims and proposing the EastMed pipeline with the” Greek Cypriot administration “. France has participated in active drilling through its energy companies and has installed military bases, while Greece has reinforced its defensive lines around the Aegean and Crete and signed agreements with Egypt. Israel has sought energy diplomacy with Greece and Greek Cypriots through natural gas export plans from Leviathan and Tamar fields in Europe. It has also been included in security alliances that exclude Turkey. This trilateral bloc has developed political, military and energy cooperation aimed at preventing a balance of forces focusing on Turkey in the Mediterranean. “
“However, while countries such as Greece and France prioritize their own interests in such alliances, Turkey has offered more attractive, mutually beneficial proposals to its partners. This has made Turkey a more strategic, attractive and reliable ally in both the financial and defense sectors. “
“This momentum reinforces Turkey and its partners throughout the Eastern Mediterranean and the intersection of Asia, Europe and Africa. In addition, in the Mediterranean-Balkan corridor, Turkey is working with Albania and Montenegro on marine defense initiatives. By expanding this view, Turkey’s deepest partnerships with Qatar, Pakistan and Azerbaijan underline the remarkable progress in its commercial and defense industrial route. “
“This is the current situation. So what needs to be done next in order to further neutralize the Greece-France-Israel axis, which is a serious security threat supported by the West in the region? The answer lies in partnerships between the Iberian and Magreb regions. “
‘A potential alliance’
“Spain, led by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, has been marginalized by the West for its peaceful and just attitude towards Genocide in Gaza. At the same time, the US has proposed NATO countries to increase their defensive budgets to 5% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP), a move that is widely regarded as a tactic for the economic weakening of EU states and forced to market US weapons. Sanchez rejected this request, making the only leader who crossed this red line, which led to a reaction from the US and its growing isolation within the EU.
Spain is an extremely fertile country with huge areas and mineral wealth, powerful tourist potential and important trade routes. It has deep economic and cultural ties with Portugal and Morocco and has a significant influence on both states. This trinity forms a growing strategic bloc focusing on renewable energy sources, immigration, sea security and trade.
“In the following period, the synergy between the emerging ” Iberomarococcus ” structure of Spain and Turkey’s Mediterranean partnerships will lead to a strong form of Mediterranean domination. If Spain, Portugal and Morocco join Turkey’s current partnerships, in particular with Libya, Syria, ” TRNC ”, Algeria, Tunisia, Albania, Montenegro and other agents, a powerful man will emerge.
“This bloc will serve as a corridor for trade, defense and energy from America to Europe, Africa and Asia, undermining West colonial practices, economic sanctions and destabilizing hegemony. The nations of the Middle East and the Mediterranean will benefit from increased security and economic growth. With fertile land, vital commercial routes, strong energy resources and a tourist vision, this alliance, which unites the two ends of the Mediterranean, could soon become stronger than the existing EU. “
“China, which opposes the US hegemony, will probably support this block from the background.”
“This coalition could bring many profitable projects. For example, the incorporation of supply chains from North Africa to Europe and Asia could be achieved by linking Turkey’s middle corridor initiative to the port of Tangeri-Mediterranean in Morocco and the port of Alchethira, Spain. Tanger-Med is the largest port of container in Africa and Algeciras serves as a gateway to Europe. Turkey’s ports in Mersina, Smyrna and Filio serve as gates to Central Asia and China. This route would promote safe and independent economic growth, free from Western control. “
“In addition, the military potential of Spain and Turkey, along with allies such as Pakistan, contribute to a major strategic presence.”
‘Cooperation Bloc’
“Turkey and Spain are friendly nations and allies in many areas. It is worth noting that during the Gaza War, they opposed the West, condemned the genocide and recognized Palestine as a state. “
“It is believed that Palestine has non -verified oil and gas reserves, and its strategic location along the Mediterranean coast adds to its geopolitical significance. It is widely accepted that the real motivation behind the genocide, supported by the West and the US, is not only ideological but also guided by the desire to control these valuable territories and unused resources. With the international recognition of the Palestinian state status gaining ground, the exploration of energy in the near future is expected to begin. At the same time, defense cooperation initiatives are likely to follow. As regional dynamics evolve, Palestine is ready to align with Turkey and integrate into the emerging anti -Semitic bloc that challenges the axis of the West -backed aggression. This would significantly release the rule of the Mediterranean from the handle of the colonial forces. “
“Recently, the Israeli prime minister said: ” We will not allow the Ottoman return. ” It was not just about Turkey’s presence in Syria or the Middle East. He indicated the Ottoman rule in the Eastern Mediterranean. Historically, power in this region always passed through the Mediterranean. “
“This rich Mediterranean basin, at the crossroads of Europe, Africa and Asia, has always been vital. In the near future, the appearance of a new block of forces focused on the Mediterranean, opposed to the ” neo -colonial ” mission of the West, could shift the current global equation of forces. “
“Such a union, formed by Turkey and Spain, combining their defense, energy and commercial partnerships, could be a strong alliance. Because this block would consist of geographical nearby nations, it would grow more effectively and quickly than distant groups, such as BRICS. “
