Turkish-American Relations in the 21st Century

Turkish-American relations have been considered a model partnership between a great and middle power during the Cold War due to the positive nature of relations, being advantageous to both sides. While the United States took advantage of T rkiye's geopolitical position and military strength against the USSR, T rkiye benefited from American economic power and military technology. However, with the end of the Cold War and the emergence of new regional and global developments, a stable framework to clarify and shape Turkish-American relations has not yet been crafted. Additionally, crises such as the non-approval of the 1 March memorandum in 2003 to support the American war effort in Iraq and the 15 July 2016 coup attempt in T rkiye further distanced these two historical allies. To discuss these issues frankly and to provide some suggestions to improve the two countries' relations in many different regions/fields including Syria, Iraq, the Eastern Mediterranean, the Caucasus, the defense industry, the energy sector, and much more; Turkish-American Relations in the 21st Century aims to bring important experts on Turkish foreign policy and Turkish-American relations together.
