| dc.description.abstract | Türkiye and India have emerged from the shadows of the global stage in the 20th century to the spotlight of the 21st. They are assuming more active and dynamic roles through an assertive demand for a more equitable world order that ends the politics of hegemony, and encourages innovative geopolitical partnerships which share the task of maintaining strategic stability and increasing prosperity at national, regional and global levels. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Democracies like India and Türkiye are showing the way by leveraging public diplomacy to foster citizen participation, combat misinformation, and build mutually beneficial trust. These efforts ensure informed engagement in foreign policy matters. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Both nations were shaped by the disruptions of colonialism, with imposed borders intended to create enduring instability. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk’s leadership preserved Türkiye’s territorial integrity by reversing a Greek invasion supported by western imperialism, but India could not avert partition at the end of her freedom struggle, which left contested spaces and strategic gaps with neighbors. History underscores the long-term impact of colonial interventions. Türkiye’s resilience under Atatürk serves as a model for maintaining sovereignty in the face of external pressures, while India’s rising national confidence and economic resurrection has become a template for nations seeking economic growth without loss of economic sovereignty . | |
| dc.description.abstract | India and Türkiye are key players in a multi-polar world. Their geographical and cultural strengths enable them to address global challenges while safeguarding regional stability. Both nations prioritize self-defense and regional stability; both reject aggression as a means to an end. The Indian Navy’s activities in the Red Sea and Türkiye’s presence in Central Asia highlight their proactive approaches to international security. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Alliances like BRICS, The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) challenge traditional, dominance-based structures more reminscent of the 20th Cold War than 21st century values. These groupings emphasize equality, mutual respect, and shared responsibility.. Türkiye and India are both active in fostering regional and global partnerships. Türkiye’s historical ties to Central Asia and India’s Indo-Pacific outreach enhance their influence in shaping the new world order. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Power vacuums in regions like Central Asia and the Gulf must be addressed through strategic partnerships. Both nations aim to prevent disruptive interference by asserting their presence and leadership. Collaboration in trade, education, and infrastructure development offers tangible benefits. Cultural exchanges further enhance mutual understanding and long-term cooperation. | |
| dc.description.abstract | A focus on immediate mutual benefits, such as energy security, climate change, and technological innovation will bring relevant rewards. Establishing joint initiatives can strengthen bilateral ties. Collaboration on stabilizing volatile regions through shared historical and cultural ties is an immediate imperative. We also need to develop frameworks to address humanitarian challenges and promote economic growth, and build enduring partnerships based on shared values and respect for sovereignty. This approach will ensure adaptability to future geopolitical shifts even as it gives their people a better and more secure existence. | |
