Abstract

This article aims to examine the intricate interaction between energypolitics and Turldsh foreignpolicy in a turbulent region in terms of challenges and opportunities. From a theoretical perspective, the focus ofthe article lies at the critical intersection ofsoft and hard security, as well as domestic and external politics. It argues that, on the one hand, Turkeyhas been highlighting its potential of 'energyhub' position as an asset and, on the other hand, Turkey also needs to effectively deal with numerous hard and soft security issues doselylinked-with its foreign policy and rising domestic energy needs, which constitutes a major liability. Ultimately, the delicate balance that Turkey will try to strike will have a decisive impact in terms of determining its nature ofinteraction with other critical actors and future role as a regional power. / Bu makale son derece çalkantılı bir bölgede şekillenmekte olan enerji politikaları ve Türk dış politikası arasındaki karmaşık etkileşimi zorluklar ve fırsatlar çerçevesinde incelemektedir. Teorik açıdan çalışma, yumuşak ve sert güvenlik faktörlerinin yanı sıra iç ve dış siyasetin kritik kesişimine odaklanmaktadır. Makale, Türkiye’nin potansiyel bir “enerji merkezi” olma konumunun önemli bir avantaj olduğunu vurgularken, diğer taraftan, ülkenin dış politikası ve artan enerji ihtiyacı ile yakından bağlantılı çok sayıda sert ve yumuşak güvenlik sorununun etkin bir biçimde yönetilmesinin büyük bir zorluk yarattığını savunmaktadır. Sonuç olarak, enerji politikaları Türkiye’nin dış politikasında korumaya çalıştığı hassas dengeler, diğer kritik aktörlerle ilişkilerin belirlenmesi ve bölgesel bir güç olarak Türkiye’nin gelecekteki rolünün şekillenmesi açısından belirleyici bir önem taşımaktadır.
