In almost 19 years in power, top of the political longevity table with Vladimir Putin, Bashar Assad and King Abdullah of Jordan, Recep Tayep Erdogan has made himself an important player on the regional and even global political scenes. Erdogan’s Turkey is certainly not taken for granted. In the Mediterranean, in Syria, in Central Asia conflicts, in Europe’s migration headache, even in the evacuation from Kabul, Turkey’s role was notable, though not always received with critical acclaim. But where has Erdogan’s trajectory taken Turkey? How is his Middle Eastern and Eastern Mediterranean policy intended to meet current challenges and exploit emerging opportunities?
To analyse this topic, we are joined from Ankara, Turkey by Mr. Yusuf Erim, TRT World Editor at large, Dr. Nir Boms, Research fellow, Moshe Dayan center at Tel Aviv University and Amir Oren, TV7 analyst and host of Watchmen Talk.
