Turkey: Erdoğan navigates through geopolitical waters with no clear course
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is waiting for his Russian counterpart to visit his country – but he appears to be navigating the waters of geopolitics without a clear course.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has once again voiced strong support for Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity, emphasising Turkey's stance on the return of Crimea to Ukraine. Speaking at the Fourth Crimea Platform Leaders Summit, Erdogan reiterated that Turkey has never recognized Russia's annexation of Crimea and views the return of the region to Ukrainian control as a matter of international law. Highlighting the importance of upholding the rights of Crimean Tatars, Erdogan expressed gratitude to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Crimean Tatar leader Mustafa Abdulcemil Kirimoglu for their efforts in organising the summit, which marks the 80th anniversary of the expulsion of Crimean Tatars. As global tensions rise, Erdogan's firm position underscores Turkey's commitment to supporting Ukraine's sovereignty while navigating complex geopolitical relationships.

Turkey is making a strategic play to join the BRICS group of emerging-market nations, a move reflecting President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's ambition to broaden Turkey's global influence. This bid comes as Erdogan's administration seeks to pivot away from Western alliances and enhance ties with key global players. The push for BRICS membership highlights Turkey's frustration with stalled EU accession talks and its growing rifts with NATO allies over its relations with Russia. By joining BRICS, Turkey aims to strengthen economic and political ties with countries like Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, positioning itself as a critical player in a multipolar world.
