Turkey Between Russia and the West. World Politics As It Is — Without Tolerance or Censorship

2023… It’s hot! Russia’s SВО in Ukraine is in full swing. The United States and many European countries supply weapons and impose sanctions. Turkey is balancing in this conflict—unmistakably striving to move from the status of a Middle Eastern player to the list of the world’s global powers. Despite numerous problems, Erdogan managed to secure re-election for another presidential term. Observers declared these elections “the 2023 elections,” where “Turkey chose between Putin and Biden.”

In the new book by well-known Middle East experts and TV hosts, the hottest issues are discussed:

– What has changed in Russian-Turkish relations since the start of the SВО?

– How does the “relocation” of Russians to Turkey proceed?

– The election of a new old Turkish power: how did Erdogan hold his ground against the opposition, the earthquakes, and the West?

– Was Erdogan “one of ours” before winning the 2023 election, and what can Russia expect from him after his victory?
