Based on the analysis of Turkey\u2019s rhetorical stance towards the region\u2019s countries and its actual interaction across five sectors \u2013 trade, energy, security, education\/culture and migration \u2013 our findings demonstrate that the foreign policy rhetoric with its strong emphasis on historical ties, economic and energy cooperation and support for regional countries\u2019 territorial integrity is not matched by Turkey\u2019s observable engagement. An important factor for the mismatch between rhetoric and engagement is that relations with the region are seen at least partly through the prism of Turkey\u2019s more salient relations with Russia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EU-STRAT has released Working Paper No. 13, which examines Turkey&#8217;s foreign policy towards its post-Soviet Black Sea neighbourhood.
