Abstract

The article analyzes the multidimensional nature of Turkey’s foreign policy and its relations with Russia in the 2010s and the early 2020s through the prism of strategic hedging concept. Since the late 2010s, Turkey has systematically positioned itself as a power aspiring for significant strategic autonomy in international affairs.

This strategy enables Turkey to enhance its strategic autonomy in international relations. Russia has become an important source of Turkey’s strategic autonomy while the crisis in Ukraine, with all its negative impact on Turkey, has opened up new opportunities.
