ERENDOR, Mehmet Emin  e  KAIYPOVA, Dilzhan. Historical background and current situation of China-Turkey relations. Universidad y Sociedad [online]. 2022, vol.14, n.3, pp. 682-688.  Epub 30-Jun-2022. ISSN 2218-3620.

In the 1990s, China left “passive pragmatism” and started actively engaging in and initiating its relations with other countries. Today, China is continuing to expand as a global power as its investments in infrastructure and oil exploration from Central Asia to the Middle East are growing. Turkey, in this case, is a crucial partner for China both because of its projects such as the Belt and Road Initiative, and also because of the region it is located. However, bilateral relations are suffering from the lack of similar foreign policy approaches, which would allow them to cooperate effectively. This paper will discuss this pattern within the scope of the Arab Spring in detail and will touch upon the Sino-Turkish-Russian affairs to explain the Uyghur “problem” in detail. The year 1971 marks China’s admission to the UN, therefore, it will also mark the start of the analysis regarding its relationship with Turkey as well.

Palavras-chave : Arab Spring; Syria crises; foreign policy; securitization; terror; regional cooperation.
