Prof. Dr. Nevzat Tarhan: "There are lessons we can learn from the pandemic"

Üsküdar University Founding Rector, Psychiatrist Prof. Dr. Nevzat Tarhan, in the opening speech of the congress, especially touched on the effects of the pandemic process and gave messages about what messages can be drawn from the pandemic in the Islamic world. Prof. Dr. Nevzat Tarhan said, “As you know, Allah Almighty speaks to people constantly… Allah talks in the language of the event. We already know that this pandemic is not accidental. If we can understand these events correctly, we will learn the right lessons, correct our mistakes, and continue on our way. The pandemic have formed a sense of fear in people. There is no physical and psychological comfort, people's freedom is restricted. Now everyone cannot hug their children, cannot touch his hand, his mouth, his face. There is no fast way of living like before. Modern people who are in pursuit of pleasure have lost all of this. On the one hand, the Islamic world is now sad about the Kaaba. Al-Masjid an-Nabawi, Al-Aqsa Mosque and Süleymaniye Mosque are sad. People are not able to visit there. Hagia Sophia was opened, it is a great service, but it is the same. We cannot go there as we wish. People got lonely"

Adnan Tanrıverdi: "It is aimed to present a model with ASSAM Congresses"

ASSAM President of Board of Directors Adnan Tanrıverdi shared information about the congress, which was held for the fourth time this year, in his opening speech. Touching on three congresses held in the past years, Tanrıverdi stated that the congress is a community initiative and said, “Our aim is to present a model for decision-makers. The purpose of this congress is to determine the procedures and principles of the common defense system to be established in the 9 federal regions affiliated to the Confederation and the national states affiliated to these federal regions with the common defense system to be carried out in the Confederation Center. Islamic countries, 61 of the 193 states that are members of the United Nations organization are Muslim countries. 1.85 billion of the 7 billion 632 million world population consists of the people of the Muslim state countries. 30.9 million square kilometers of the land of the world, which is the total 150 million square kilometers, are the lands of Islamic countries. ASSAM tries to put forward a term opposite to Eurasia by saying "Asrica continents" representing Asia and Africa, the backbone of the Islamic geography. In other words, we are trying to determine Asia and Africa unity”.

Adnan Tanrıverdi: "ASRICA is a candidate to be the superpower of the future"

Drawing attention to the richness of the resources of the Islamic geography, Adnan Tanrıverdi said, “The Islamic geography has 55.5 percent of the world's oil reserves, 65 percent of its production, 64.1 percent of natural gas reserves, 40 percent of its production, it has a potential power, which is candidate to be the superpower of the future in the Eurasian geography, by combining its opportunities, efforts and goals with its geopolitical position is the historical accumulation of common civilization values.  However, the Islamic world is the most intervened countries in this land and the countries that occupy the agenda of United Nations the most. These are the countries where terrorism and anarchy are not lacking in their territory, whose resources are managed by foreign powers, where human rights and freedoms are violated, where income distribution is corrupt, where political, social and economic instability prevails, and who demand and need the help and support of external power centers to solve their internal problems”.

Adnan Tanrıverdi stated that the purpose of the congresses, which was held in a series, was to ensure that the institutions required for the gathering of Islamic countries under a will and to reveal the legislation that these institutions should have as a model. We carried out the main subject of the first international ASSAM congresses in 2017 as the determination of the government bodies and legislation for the Islamic Union, the second one in 2018, the determination of the economic cooperation principles and procedures for the union from Istanbul, and the third is defense industry cooperation principles and procedures in 2019.

Adnan Tanrıverdi: "An ideal model will be revealed for the Confederation of ASRICA Islamic Countries"

Adnan Tanrıverdi also touched upon the activities to be carried out at the 4th International ASSAM Islamic Union Congress titled "ASRICA Confederation Defense System".

“The purpose of this congress is to determine the procedures and principles of the common defense system to be established in the 9 federal regions (conceived) affiliated to the Confederation and the national states affiliated to these federal regions with the common defense system to be carried out in the Confederation Center. In the congress, the evaluation of the geopolitical situation of ASRICA Islamic countries, the defense organizations of global powers and their activities in Islamic countries, the military bases of global powers, private military companies, the organizations and proxy wars they use, and the defense organizations of the Islamic countries will be examined. In addition, the military forces of Islamic countries (Land-Navy-Air-Air Defense-Special Forces-Cyber Aviation-Space Forces), the origin of warfare weapons in the inventories of Islamic countries, as well as the defense organization of the Ottoman period, the examination of the defense alliances in the world, the Confederation of the ASRICA Islamic countries, ideal defense organization, regional defense organizations of the Confederation Ministry of Defense, defense organizations under the confederation ministry of defense of the national states will be processed, examined and evaluated, and an ideal model for the ASRICA Islamic Countries Confederation will be revealed at the end of the congress. Subsequently, we aim to put forward a model that will bring Islamic countries under a will by the end of 2023 by discussing issues related to common foreign policy and also common justice system in the next years, and common assistance and security issues in the following year in 2023."
