| Summary / Abstract (Note) | In the last decade, the Gulf has emerged as an important focal point of Turkish foreign policy. The Arab Awakening, however, has unleashed powerful pressures for change throughout the Middle East and Gulf. The key question is what impact these pressures for change will have on Turkey's foreign policy toward the Gulf and the Middle East more broadly. Ankara's Gulf policy was predicated on the political status quo in the Gulf remaining largely intact. Can this policy still succeed? Or will it have to be redefined to deal with a new and highly dynamic strategic landscape? |
