The decline of US global hegemony, an increase in Chinese influence, right-wing populist governments across the world, and protracted conflicts in the Middle East have caused governments to re-assess their foreign policy priorities. With their own internal political rifts, and an increasingly empowered leader in Recep Erdoğan, Turkey is no exception.
Three recent International Affairs authors consider:
- How the country is pursuing relations within the Middle East
- How it seeks to engage with countries in the global South
- Where it sits within the longer standing institutions of the rules-based international order
