Mediation as foreign policy, the case of Turkey Guest: Spyros Sofos

Mediation as foreign policy, the case of Turkey Guest: Spyros Sofos

In this episode, we delve into Turkey's unique approach to mediation in its foreign policy. Our discussion uncovers how historical traditions, regional ambitions, and contemporary challenges have shaped Turkey's role as a mediator. From its initial engagements in Iraq and Iran to its involvement in the Balkans, Central Asia, and Africa, Turkey's mediation efforts have evolved significantly. We explore the influence of the Ottoman Empire's negotiation practices, the impact of the 1990s geopolitical shifts, and Turkey's strategic positioning as an honest broker free from colonial baggage. The episode also highlights the personalistic turn in Turkey's mediation under the Justice and Development Party, examining both the successes and limitations of this approach. Join us as we discuss Turkey's mediation in Bosnia, Kosovo, Somalia, and Somaliland, and the broader implications for its foreign policy and international standing. This episode also offers a comprehensive understanding of the human capital involved, and the ongoing challenges in achieving sustainable peace.
