Abstract

Turkey was the first state to recognize the independence of Turkic countries that separated from the Soviet Union in the early 1990s. Common historical and cultural ties encouraged the late President Turgut Özal to establish TİKA to contribute to the development process of these countries. Turkey’s cooperation in Central Asia and Caucasia later evolved into a multidimensional framework during Erdoğan’s time in office. This framework is principally centered on reinforcing regional collaboration, development, stability, and peace. Within this context, Turkey has established strong partnerships in the region. This chapter mainly covers Turkey’s cooperation with Uzbekistan and Azerbaijan, as part of its regional perspective.
