| dc.description.abstract | Turkey’s international relations policy has changed constantly in the past ten years. Based on the motto of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk- the founder of the young Turkish Republic- “peace at home, peace in the world”, Turkey strives to mediate conflicts in its region and internationally. This study describes Turkey’s efforts as an intermediary, with its weaknesses and strengths. Following a comprehensive literature review on mediation and Turkey’s previous mediation efforts, this research focuses on the opinions of Turkish diplomats and Turkish academicians of Turkey’s role as a mediator. The results of the analysis show that Turkey has the potential to continue its mediation efforts in the future, however, it needs to strengthen its human capacity to engage better in conflicts and help the conflicting parties reach sustainable resolution and peace. | |
