    About the event:

    “Turkish Foreign Policy; challenges and opportunities”

    A Lecture by Ali Babacan, Turkish Minister of Foreign Affairs

    Read the speech

    Turkey’s strategic environment is unique and its desire to support the West’s common objectives long-standing. Turkey is of critical importance to the Eastern Mediterranean region, the NATO Alliance, as well as in tackling the terrorist threat. The challenges Turkey faces are numerous; its relations with the European Union, the Cyprus question and energy security. Yet, its concerns on these issues are rarely the subject of detailed discussion within the UK.

    The Royal United Services Institute welcomed Ali Babacan, Turkish Minister of Foreign Affairs, on Monday 14 April who spoke on Turkey’s foreign policy preoccupations.
