Turkey: between election and crises

Still candidate for EU membership and major ally to envision a long-term stabilization in the Middle East, Turkey seems weakened by internal flaws and threatened by spreading regional conflicts. Two weeks after a tense legislative scrutiny, what are the political and economical perspectives for this key country?

Ifri’s Contemporary Turkey Programme offers you an insight on the political dynamics of the past year and the imminent challenges which the new government will have to deal with.
