Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of the global and regional developments in the post-Cold War era on Turkish-US relations concerning Persian Gulf security from a Turkish perspective. It suggests that despite continuities in Turkey's perspective of the state of its alliance with the United Stares in the new era, the alliance between the two countries is moving in new directions filled with unprecedented challenges.
