Germany and Turkey in the Emerging European Security Order

Description

US President Donald Trump’s second term in office has been a watershed moment for the European security order and Germany’s and Turkey’s place in it. As the Trump administration has made clear that Europe needs to step up its own defences, European powers, most notably Germany, have turned to Turkey to enhance strategic cooperation. This article will highlight the current trajectory of cooperation between Ankara and Berlin as they work to reframe the European security order.
