Zusammenfassung
Turkey’s assertive and militarized foreign policy have reached their limits in the Eastern Mediterranean, and as of late 2020, Ankara is seeking ways to exit its self-imposed impasse. From a Turkish perspective, the EU should strike a balance between the needs of its associate member, Turkey, and its full members. The recent conflicts and crises in the region intensified anti-EU sentiments in Turkey, and the public has lost interest in the EU membership process. The prevalent sentiment in Turkey is that the EU is backing traditional foes of Turkey, which eventually plays into the hands of nationalist forces in the country. Turkish society needs to see that the EU has a balanced approach and assumes a fair attitude. The EU cannot face losing Turkey, and the EU is too critical for Turkey to lose.
