Abstrak: Artikel jurnal ini membahas tentang pengaruh besar usaha Turki untuk bergabung dengan Uni Eropa terhadap kebijakan luar negerinya. Turki merupakan negara yang penting secara geopolitik dan memiliki sejarah dari Kekaisaran Ottoman, yang memberikan keuntungan dalam memperluas pengaruhnya di wilayah sekitarnya. Daripada hanya berfokus pada Uni Eropa, Turki dengan cerdik memilih untuk memperluas pengaruhnya, yang menguntungkan kepentingan nasionalnya. Di bawah pimpinan Partai Keadilan dan Pembangunan (AKP) yang dipimpin oleh Recep Tayyip Erdogan dan Ahmet Davutoglu, kebijakan luar negeri Turki dirancang dengan baik dengan penerapan kebijakan "strategic depth," juga dipadukan dengan prinsip "zero problems" dan "good neighbors." Perubahan strategi ini menyebabkan Turki beralih dari orientasi Barat ke fokus lebih pada hubungan baik dengan negara-negara Muslim di Timur Tengah. Tentu saja, perubahan ini berdampak pada hubungan Turki dengan negara-negara Barat. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan faktor-faktor yang mendorong perubahan kebijakan luar negeri Turki tersebut. Dengan memahami dinamika yang terlibat dan akibatnya bagi interaksi global Turki, artikel ini membantu memahami peran Turki dalam hubungan internasional dan memprediksi perkembangan diplomasi di masa depan.
