In 2025, Turkey’s long-term strategic patience paid off as it successfully balanced relations between Russia and the West amid ongoing global conflicts. Despite early fears that Ankara would be forced to choose sides following the 2022 Russia-Ukraine war, the country maintained diplomatic flexibility, turning crises into opportunities. Through initiatives such as the Antalya peace talks, the Black Sea grain deal, and the Istanbul peace process, Turkey positioned itself as a key mediator while sustaining trade with Moscow under Western sanctions.
Turkey’s defense industry gained global recognition, particularly for its Bayraktar drones used in Ukraine and Azerbaijan’s Nagorno-Karabakh operations. The country also benefited from shifting regional dynamics, including the fall of the Assad regime in Syria and emerging peace prospects between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Improved ties with the EU, the U.S., and Gulf nations further strengthened Turkey’s geopolitical standing. Analysts suggest that Ankara’s pragmatic diplomacy and defense partnerships could accelerate its EU integration talks and restore its role in the F-35 program, marking 2025 as a pivotal year for its global influence.
