Turkey has long been a valued U.S. NATO ally and strategic partner. Successive administrations have viewed it as a secular democracy that could serve as an inspiration or model for other Muslim majority countries. However, the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) has made foreign policy decisions that have led some longtime U.S. observers to question its future course. Domestic political developments may be enabling the AKP’s greater assertiveness in international affairs and are, therefore, worthy of closer scrutiny. This book examines the current Turkish political scene; explores Turkey’s accession negotiations with the European Union; looks at the elusive reunification with Cyprus and provides an overview of current select foreign policy issues and U.S. views on Turkey.
