H. Nusret TAŞDELER Lt. General Chief of Operations of TGS Symposium 3 OPENING REMARKS BY THE COMMANDER OF THE TURKISH ARMED FORCES GENERAL YAŞAR BÜYÜKANIT Distinguished guests, Welcome to the Second “Global Terrorism and International Cooperation Symposium”. This symposium is organized in a period during which the international efforts against global terrorism have been intensified. This, along with the support provided by our esteemed participants, is the indication of our common determination in the fight against terrorism. I would like to thank you all for your contributions and greet you warmly. I would like to begin my speech by emphasizing the importance of the “Center of Excellence Defense Against Terrorism”. This center, which was founded by its host country, Turkey, supports NATO’s efforts in concept and doctrine development for combating terrorism. It also provides NATO and the other countries with operative and strategic level training on defense against terrorism. With the support and involvement of the USA, Germany, Bulgaria, Britain, the Netherlands and Romania, the center conducts workshops, courses, seminars and symposiums to form a common platform against global terrorism. 1976 participants from 85 countries and 469 instructors and experts from 40 different countries have participated in the 4 Global Terrorism and International Cooperation-II activities of the center since its establishment. I believe these activities contribute a lot to the establishment of a common understanding and to cooperation among the nations in the fight against terrorism. Distinguished

The world has become overrun by organizations, both private and public, which have accumulated vast fortunes and enormous political influence by regulating, containing, and manipulating the market to their own advantage. From Eastern Europe’s booming sex trade industry to China’s “online sweatshops,” from al-Qaeda’s underwriters to America’s subprime mortgage lending scandal, Rogue Economics exposes the paradoxical economic connections of the new global marketplace.
