Turkish diplomatic offensive against the deposition of Mursi

Diplomatic offensive that Erdogan's Turkey has been waging against what is seen as the Egyptian coup and in favor of the liberation of deposed president Mursi, you may not notice all the fears of the government in Ankara for the breakthrough in the secular sense that is happening in Cairo. Turkey was the country that has welcomed the election of Mursi with greater heat, just for the turn in the confessional sense that Egypt could take and very similar, but with important distinctions, to what Erdogan is trying to impose within the their state borders. The rest of your Turkey was an example to follow for the Egyptian state just freed from Mubarak: a state in economic rise, with the heavy influence of the past had considerably reduced by the armed forces and with an institutional framework, albeit moderately secular, based on our values Islam. However, the conditions of Turkey, who came from years of deep secularization of the state within a democracy that seemed now assimilated by social subjects, were very different from those in Egypt, marked by years of dictatorship, that they needed to gradual processes and, above all, shared by all political forces. But despite these differences, the two were looked with feelings of mutual sympathy for the desire to walk on similar paths, which allow to put religion at the center of the legislative processes and customs of social life. Both countries have been crossed by heavy opposition because of the intrusiveness within religious institutions, without being accepted by secular forces, but, while in Egypt the process of marginalization of the armed forces was not at all concluded, allowing the return of 'army on the political scene in Turkey's military has remained in place allowing Erdogan to stay at the top of the state. This does not mean that Ankara does not fear political change that allows, at least, the reduction in the customs and sectarian influence in the life of every day. The Egyptian example falls at an inconvenient time for the turkish government, and internationally, it loses its most important ally, Mursi, in fact, the political vision permeated Islam. In fact the similarities, though present, are only the background for the profound difference of the two companies, with Turkey very determined to get into Europe and then with a more modernized, but precisely this factor weighs on demonstrations in Istanbul, which were characterized by the defense of a more secular. Erdogan urged his diplomatic channels with the U.S., EU, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, to obtain a condemnation of the actions of the Egyptian military, no, get real answers. Especially the biggest disappointment came from the Gulf states, which have expressed positive towards the Egyptian interim government, a position perceived by Turkey as an indirect support to the coup. The three states, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, have recently collaborated very closely to the Syrian issue, sharing a common vision in support of rebels fighting against Assad, if these differences were to worsen, the effects could go in favor the dictator of Damascus.
