TURKEY'S INVOLVEMENT IN RESOLVING REGIONAL CONFLICTS

Abstract

Today, global political and economic crises, conflicts, and disputes are leading to the erosion of the foundation and decisive principles of the international relations system. Confrontation and protectionism are causing the fragmentation of the world economy and the disruption of supply chains. New barriers are emerging that hinder effective cooperation between states in the areas of trade, finance, investment, technology, and innovation transfer. In particular, the events unfolding around Ukraine and in the Middle East demonstrate that the international geopolitical balance has entered a state of crisis. As a result, traditional trade and transport chains are being disrupted, logistics costs are significantly increasing, and new obstacles are appearing. In such an unstable situation, the Republic of Turkey is also striving to protect its national interests in its foreign policy, as well as to create conditions for establishing sustainable peace and development not only in the Eurasian region but also in the world. This article provides a scientific analysis of Turkey's participation in resolving regional conflicts.
