CEVAP:

To AKP governments, Turkey should be defined as a central country, suggesting that Turkish rulers adopt a Turkey-centric worldview in defining national interests and policies. In addition, Turkey should be in a position to feel itself as part of each and every geographical location. The main foreign policy objective of Turkey should be to help shape regional developments decisively and to forge interests-based pragmatic relationships with key global actors. Turkish foreign policy should be defined and conducted in a multi-lateral and multi-dimensional fashion so as to make sure that regional and global developments do not negatively affect the liberal democratic transformation and economic development processes at home.
