Turkey’s mediatory endeavours: Facilitating dialogue in the Russia-Ukraine conflict

Wysiłki mediacyjne Turcji: pośredniczenie w konflikcie Rosji z Ukrainą

Abstrakt: W artykule omówione zostaną aspiracje Turcji do odgrywania aktywnej roli mediatora w wojnie rosyjsko-ukraińskiej. Jako średnia potęga dążąca do umacniania swoich globalnych wpływów, Turcja równoważy relacje z Rosją bliższymi stosunkami z Ukrainą. Przykładem tej strategii jest ambiwalentna polityka kooperatywnej rywalizacji z Rosją przy jednoczesnym umacnianiu stosunków, również w sferze militarnej, z Kijowem. Biorąc powyższe pod uwagę, Turcja postrzega siebie jako naturalnie predestynowaną do pośredniczenia między zwaśnionymi stronami w celu zaprowadzenia pokoju. Odniosła już na tym polu pewne sukcesy, czego przykładem jest inicjatywa zbożowa.
