There are three important points in American and Turkish relations ;
• Turkish- American relations are broad ,
• are mixed ,
• Deep is .
These three important points to know to understand the three major changes taking place in the International System are required to analyze . These three major changes occurred ;
• From 1991 to the end of the Cold War ( Geopolitical Change)
• 2001 to 11 September Attack (Security in the Field Change)
• 2011 – Change in the Mediterranean Basin .
Political and economic changes
European crisis
transformation in North Africa and the Middle East .
So, Turkey, studied how these three major changes and reacts . The answer to this from the perspective of Turkey’s outside the United States to respond would be more healthy looking .
The coup in Egypt in America to be silent , not to intervene in the civil war in Syria , especially in the Turkish public comments that were made in America acted inconsistently . This review is instead focusing on changes in the international system and American domestic politics sourced from known until the “new foreign policy of prudent ” right to read. In this case, Turkish Foreign Policy and the restoration of the capacity limit can be drawn out of it can be built. As a result, the capacity does not exceed an attempt to enter utopia , and that day will not be alone at this point .
Experienced by briefly outlining three different occasions if we read it ;
Turkey, 1991 – Cold War influenced American relationship and partnership model of strategic partnerships come and go and come . America, the dynamics of domestic policy create a new vision for the Asia-Pacific unreceptive foreign policy makers Turkish Foreign Policy in the Middle East that America’s Cold War reflexes wait and see policy is editing on it . As a result of the Arab Spring triggered if economic reasons , although today these reasons and purpose of the loss has been a move away . In the first round of talks in Geneva -2 is a reflection of this instability occurs .
America, the new foreign policy goals that the Asia-Pacific and turning to the fact that in the Middle East to Turkey and its new role , relying orientation but both Turkey and the Arab Spring ‘s in unprepared and developing incident correctly unable to read and different perceptions of the United States and the relationship was interrupted .
If it is a little more open ; America AKP government to develop a dialogue with the Kurdish administration in northern Iraq, and was asked to develop cooperation with the Turkish government attempted to do this without limitation, showed oil agreements .Think of it as the second most important issue in Syria and that America itself is thought that he could intervene .
Third shortsighted , a coup to bring down an elected government in Egypt and the Turkish Government’s America’s “democracy” address and take action to support their Muslim brothers thought of it but it has entered into a crossroads in America remain neutral . The reason for this spell the beginning of the first bet I remain in Turkish Foreign Policy Since the Cold War mentality is . Because the bipolar US- Soviet apparent ” conflict ” is actually the “enemy” by the role of energy resources, markets, countries that share and execute system has two partners .
II. After World War II the global balance of power and geo-strategic axis that determines the agreement is one of the Yalta . ” Big Three” Allied Powers referred to as ‘ s leader Winston Churchill , Franklin D. Roosevelt and Josef Stalin in 1945, is located 3 km south of Livadia Palace in Yalta came together .
After a while Winston Churchill , Missouri Fulton , in the city on the podium Truman were together a speech on the ” Continent on in the Baltic, from Stettin in the Adriatic Triyeste to extending longitudinally from an iron curtain came down ,” said the England and the United States must work together against the Soviet threat had reported that . In 1991, the Soviet threat was destroyed in one night .
Congress and think tanks in the United States on this issue simply by self-criticism of Turkey to acknowledge that the American acts are inconsistent . In the next article ” Attack of September 2001-11 (Security in the Field Change) ” and will focus on the perception of Turkey .
