Join Chatham House Senior Consulting Fellow Galip Dalay, as he explores how Turkey sees its place in global politics, and what it wants to achieve.

Türkiye represents and spearheads a powerful trend in global politics: regional or middle powers demanding a greater say in their regional affairs, and heightened status in international politics. From the Black Sea, to the Middle East, the Balkans and its footprint across Africa, Türkiye pursues an active and ambitious foreign policy. Meanwhile, Ankara maintains close relations with competing global powers. However, questions remain about the long-term sustainability of this policy.

The session will cover:

  • How does Türkiye navigate the global (dis)order?
  • What is Ankaras foreign policy ambition?
  • How does Türkiye’s foreign and domestic politics reshape each other?
  • What constraints and fragilities does it face in its foreign policy aspirations?
  • Where does Türkiyes international future lie?

A drinks reception will follow this session.
