Turkey between EU and Middle East: 20 years of international relations through the two sides of the Mediterranean Sea.

Abstract

The thesis wants to study the different approaches which turkey has with the European Union and the Middle East, in its international relations. Analyzing the recent changes in the Turkish policy, it is understandable how Turkey is not a stable country, that is trying to benefit as much as possible from all the international relations. The long accession negotiations are the proof of the European doubts for a country who, firstly, wanted to become an EU Member, and then, wants to play the role of protagonist in the Middle East.
