The Russian-Turkish rivalry in Central Asia after the end of the Cold War

Abstract

The Russian-Turkish relations after the end of the Cold War are considered one of the complex relations in the international system due to the contradictions it bears in terms of cooperation, competition and conflict simultaneously, given the size of the overlapping files between the two countries and the historical imperial legacy of each of them and the projections they bear on each other's foreign policy towards the other, and the region.

And the Central Asia region is one of the most important issues that have historically been the subject of conflict between the two countries, which has become a new geographical reality after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, and distributed it to different countries, each of which has its own orientation in its international relations, which formed a major battleground between countries, especially Russia. Turkey is with its ally the United States of America in order to deprive Russia of its vital sphere in that region, which it enjoyed during the Soviet Union, noting the strategic importance of the region and its great richness in oil and gas, and the war between the major countries, because of energy pipeline , and the one who controls it controls the international society relations.
