This rise of the dollar, which is currently around 9.70 in our country and is based on 10 liras, is attributed to Persona Non Grata, whose name we often hear these days. So what is the meaning of this fancy sentence?
Persona Non GrataAlthough it is a Latin term, Persona non grata translated as . The person who is declared Persona Non Grata cannot reside in that country until this decision is lifted, cannot enter the country and is requested to leave the country as soon as possible.
Based on the relevant articles of the Vienna Convention The Persona Non Grata decision taken is the heaviest punishment that can be given to diplomats with immunity and is a decision used as a last resort because it harms interstate relations. In addition, a Persona Non Grata decision can be made not only for diplomats, but also for any person.
The story of Persona Non Grata on our agenda
Ankara Ambassadors of the USA, Germany, France, Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Canada and New Zealand for the release of businessperson Osman Kavala, who has been detained since 17 October 2017 a joint statement had published. This statement was interpreted as an intervention in the judiciary by some sections, especially President Erdoğan, and it was announced that the Persona Non Grata decision was ordered for 10 ambassadors. After this statement a serious climb started.
What awaits us in the coming days?
For diplomats declared Persona Non Grata by Turkey, countries they are affiliated with Tit For Taste, so retaliation may come. If Persona Non Grata is implemented, it is estimated that Persona Non Grata will be declared about our diplomats in the ten mentioned countries.
If the diplomat, who was declared Persona Non Grata, does not leave the country, a more painful process begins this time. Because, by law, in the territory of countries Immunity of embassy and consulate buildings there is. In other words, law enforcement officers do not have the authority to enter the consulate buildings and remove these diplomats by force. If such a thing is in question; this means occupying that state politically, and this, as you can imagine, will not lead to any pleasant consequences.
