The Crisis in the American-Turkish Relations: The Creation of an Independent Kurdistan
Publisher Description
Turkey has been a prominent NATO member, and a traditional US ally for many years. However the shift in the US energy policy in the Middle East, and more specifically its rapprochement with Iran, does not help Turkey to become the absolute energy hub between the Middle East and Europe, which is her main objective, in order to overcome her lack of energy resources, and in order to increase her geostrategic significance in the international arena.
This booklet explains the crisis in the American-Turkish relations over Syria and Iran, and it explains why this crisis is a crisis over contradicting oil and natural gas interests.
