Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991, Turkey began to reengage with its Turkic neighbors in the South Caucasus and Central Asia. It opened Turkish schools—many of which have since closed. It also forged political alliances, such as the Organization of Turkic States, which is continuing to add new members, and provide security assistance to many of the countries in the region. This moderated panel discussion will examine Turkey's social, cultural, political, economic, and other influences on the South Caucasus and Central Asia over the last thirty years from the perspective of the South Caucasus and Central Asian states themselves. This event is co-sponsored with the Oxus Society and is a part of the Kennan Institute’s spotlight on the Caucasus & Central Asia. |
