Interpretation of Factors That Influence Turkish-American Bilateral Affairs and Elaboration of These Elements Between 2009-2016
Öz: The goal of this article is to better grasp and interpret the elements for a specific term that influence Turkish-American bilateral affairs, which throughout the previous few years have experienced a roller coaster. Turkish foreign policy formerly followed a Western-based course in accordance with the state's goal of westernization. Turkish foreign policy, on the other hand, has changed gradually as it turned out to be evident that the protracted EU admission efforts would not come to a conclusion. Therefore, current foreign policy of Türkiye, which is less Western centric and intimately tied with the geography of the former Ottoman Empire, has had an impact on bilateral affairs with the United States. Common interests are the most essential element influencing bilateral ties between Türkiye and the United States. The article investigates how bilateral connections are sustained when two countries have mutual concerns, as well as the implications of this if the two states have opposing concerns. As a result of the research conducted for this study, the international organizations of which the two states are a part have been ineffective in changing the interest-oriented framework of the bilateral relationship.
Anahtar Kelime: 2009-2016 Dönemi Türk-Amerikan İkili İlişkilerini Etkileyen Faktörlerin Yorumlanması ve Bu Unsurların Detaylandırılması
Öz: Bu makalenin amacı, son yıllarda inişli çıkışlı bir seyir izleyen Türk-Amerikan ikili ilişkilerini etkileyen unsurları belli bir dönem üzerinden daha iyi kavramak ve yorumlamaktır. Türk dış politikası önceleri devletin Batılılaşma hedefi doğrultusunda Batı merkezli bir seyir izlemiştir. Buna mukabil Türk dış politikası uzun süredir devam eden AB üyelik çabalarının sonuç vermeyeceğinin ortaya çıkmasıyla çok yönlü bir şekilde değişmiştir. Sonuç olarak, Türkiye'nin daha az Batı merkezli ve eski Osmanlı İmparatorluğu coğrafyasına sıkı sıkıya bağlı olan mevcut dış politikası, ABD ile ikili ilişkilerde etkili olmuştur. Ortak çıkarlar, Türkiye ile ABD arasındaki ikili ilişkileri etkileyen en temel unsurdur. Makale, iki ülkenin karşılıklı kaygıları olduğunda ikili bağlantıların nasıl sürdürüldüğünü ve bunun yanı sıra iki devletin karşıt kaygıları varsa bunun sonuçlarını araştırmaktadır. Bu çalışma sonucunda iki devletin parçası olduğu kuruluşların, ikili ilişkinin çıkar odaklı çerçevesini değiştirmekte etkisiz kaldığı anlaşılmıştır.
