Bad news for Pakistan supporter Turkey as Ankara's tourism economy sinks due to…, Erdogan staring at destruction due to…
Bad news for Pakistan supporter Turkey as Ankara's tourism economy sinks due to…, Erdogan staring at destruction due to… After Ankara came out in support of Pakistan during the recent India-Pakistan war, a 'Boycott Turkey' campaign was started in India as Indians boycotted Turkish goods and cancelled tourist bookings to the country. Advertisement (File) Turkey, which openly supported Pakistan during the recent India-Pakistan conflict after Operation Sindoor, is now paying a heavy price of the decision, as Ankara's tourism economy has dipped by a massive 37 percent, primarily because of Indian tourists boycotting the country as a tourist destination. Why India's boycott hit Turkish economy? After Ankara came out in support of Pakistan during the recent India-Pakistan war, a 'Boycott Turkey' campaign was started in India as Indians boycotted Turkish goods and cancelled tourist bookings to the country, resulting in a huge decline in the number of Indian tourists visiting to Turkey. Advertisement === According to media reports, the number of Indian tourists who visited Turkey in June slumped to 24,250 from the 38,307 in the same month last year, a decline of 37 percent, while the numbers also dropped significantly in the month of May, dealing a major blow to Turkey's tourism industry and its economy. Notably, India-based travel portals such as MakeMyTrip, EaseMyTrip and Cleartrip have also stopped promoting Turkey as a tourist destination, resulting in further decline. Advertisement === Following Turkey's open support to Pakistan, India took a slew of measures to downgrade ties with Eurasian country, including cancelling major business deals with Turkish firms. How Turkey supported Pakistan during Operation Sindoor? Turkey, along with China and Azerbaijan, was among the few countries that openly supported Pakistan during the recent India-Pakistan conflict, and also armed the Pakistani forces with advanced military drones like the Bayraktar TB2, which were actively used against Indian installations during Operation Sindoor. Following the conflict, Turkey has boosted its strategic and military ties with Pakistan, and is likely to offer its state-of-the-art ALKA-KAPLAN laser tank to Islamabad, which could pose a major threat to India as it would significantly boost the enemy's capability to counter Indian UCAVs, such as those used to target terrorist and military infrastructure in Pakistan during Operation Sindoor

Russian, US space chiefs meet to discuss continued cooperation
Moscow, Aug 1 (AP) Russia's space chief has visited the United States to discuss plans for continued cooperation between Moscow and Washington on the International Space Station and lunar research with NASA's acting chief, the first such face-to-face meeting in more than seven years. Dmitry Bakanov, the director of the state space corporation Roscosmos, met Thursday with NASA's new acting administrator, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, on a visit to attend the planned launch of a US-Japanese-Russian crew to the space station. The launch was delayed by weather until Friday. Roscosmos said Bakanov and Duffy discussed 'further work on the International Space Station, cooperation on lunar programmes, joint exploration of deep space and continued cooperation on other space projects." Once bitter rivals in the space race during the Cold War, Roscosmos and NASA cooperated on the space station and other projects. That relationship was beset with tensions after Moscow sent troops into Ukraine in 2022, but Washington and Moscow have continued to work together, with US and Russian crews continuing to fly to the orbiting outpost on each country's spacecraft. Plans for broader cooperation, including possible Russian involvement in NASA's Artemis programme of lunar research, have fallen apart. As Russia has become increasingly reliant on China for its energy exports and imports of key technology amid Western sanctions, Roscosmos has started cooperation with China on its prospective lunar mission. 'Our experts will now start working on those issues in details," Bakanov said, praising Duffy for giving a green light for those contacts 'despite geopolitical tensions." The Russian space chief added that he and Duffy will report the results of the meeting to Russian President Vladimir Putin and President Donald Trump to secure their blessing for potential space cooperation. 'In view of the difficult geopolitical situation, we will need to receive the necessary clearance from the leaders of our countries," Bakanov said. He added he invited Duffy to visit Moscow and the Russia-leased Baikonur launch facility in Kazakhstan for the launch of another Russia-US crew to the space station scheduled for November. 'I will put my efforts into keeping the channel of cooperation between Russia and the US open, and I expect NASA to do the same," Bakanov said.

Shadow over India-US ties
US President Donald Trump's outburst against India on social media in recent days, coupled with the announcement of a 25% tariff on all imports from India, is extraordinary in more ways than one, apart from being factually incorrect. The Indian economy is far from 'dead', as Trump described it in a social media post while railing against India's trade with Russia. India is the world's fastest-growing major economy and will become its fourth largest this year. Trump himself was quite bullish on economic cooperation and a trade deal with India, if the joint statement released after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the US in February this year is any indication. 'The leaders resolved to expand trade and investment to make their citizens more prosperous, nations stronger, economies more innovative, and supply chains more resilient. They resolved to deepen the US-India trade relationship to promote growth that ensures fairness, national security and job creation', it said while setting a goal of taking bilateral trade between India and the US to $500 billion by 2030. This is not the language countries or leaders use while dealing with 'dead' economies. What Trump has sought to do, in effect, is insist that the US should have a say in determining India's strategic choices, even after New Delhi has made it clear that it would prefer to maintain strategic autonomy based on national interests. (REUTERS) Indian exports will undoubtedly suffer once the US raises tariff barriers, but that threat is unlikely to force New Delhi to play Washington's game in crucial sectors such as agriculture and dairy, which India has safeguarded in recent trade deals, because there will be severe domestic consequences if these areas are opened up in the way Trump wants them to be. As commerce minister Piyush Goyal has said, New Delhi will have to safeguard its vital national interests, which include sourcing energy and military equipment from Russia, with which it has a legacy relationship. What Trump has sought to do, in effect, is insist that the US should have a say in determining India's strategic choices, even after New Delhi has made it clear that it would prefer to maintain strategic autonomy based on national interests. Trump also cut deals with the European Union, China, Japan and South Korea ahead of his self-imposed August 1 deadline for reciprocal tariffs, all involving pledges of billions of dollars in investments. There was even a deal with Pakistan, which Trump described just seven years ago as a 'safe haven' for terrorists that has given the US 'nothing but lies and deceit'. On Friday, the Pakistan government got a tariff rate of 19%, down from the original 29%. Trump's taunt about developing Pakistan's energy reserves to sell oil to India, coming on the back of his near-daily claims about ending hostilities between India and Pakistan in May, will hardly endear him to anyone in New Delhi. Sure, contradictions in the India-US relationship have not come to the fore for the first time. Since the turnaround in bilateral relations following India's nuclear tests in 1998, the two sides have learnt to manage their differences while enhancing areas of convergence. What is different this time is Trump's blunt and offensive communication strategy, where 'a friend' is being openly berated and insulted in the public space. New Delhi has so far not responded sharply, and Trump may only be using tariffs to build pressure — talks for a trade deal are continuing — and the US president has successfully deployed this strategy to have his way with multiple countries, including once-close allies such as Canada. But such whimsical and erratic decision-making has the potential to influence perceptions and impact bilateral ties that both countries have invested much in since the 2000s. The leadership on both sides needs to guard against such a turn of events.
