Fault Lines in a Troubled Alliance
" Turkey: A necessary ally in a troubled region Turkey stands at the front lines of many of today's global challenges, from a war-torn Middle East with dramatic flows of refugees seeking safety to a Cold War-like rivalry between the United States and Russia.

" Turkey: A necessary ally in a troubled region Turkey stands at the front lines of many of today's global challenges, from a war-torn Middle East with dramatic flows of refugees seeking safety to a Cold War-like rivalry between the United States and Russia. Yet the country fails to play a more constructive role in helping to support the international liberal order, and its leadership is in frequent conflict with its Western allies. As a result, many in the West now question whether Turkey functions as a dependable ally for the United States and other NATO members. Kemal Kirisci shows that domestic and regional realities are more and more likely to edge Turkey toward improving its relations with the West. A better understanding of these developments will be critical in devising an updated U.S. strategy toward Turkey and its neighborhood. Western policymakers must keep in mind three on-the-ground realities that might work to their advantage. First, Turkey remains deeply integrated within the transatlantic community, a fact that has imbued it with prestige in theregion. But this prestige has been squandered by the recent trajectory of Turkey's foreign policy. To regain it, Turkey must renew close cooperation with the West. The second reality is that chaos in the neighborhood has resulted in the loss of lucrative markets for Turkish exports-which means Turkey must turn increasingly to Western ones. Third, Turkish national security is threatened by developments in Syria and Russian assertiveness in the region, enhancing the value of Turkey's "troubled alliance" with the West. However, the big question is whether rising authoritarianism in Turkey and a faltering democracy can be moved in morepositive directions so that a constructive re-engagement between the Turkey and the West can take place.
