Turkey as regional mediator
Turkey's mediator self-image is a central thread of Erdogan-era foreign policy. Pro-Turkey publishers frame the convening capacity as indispensable; critics frame it as vanity diplomacy that buys influence without deliverables. The pattern repeats across Gaza (Trump's peace board offer), Ukraine (Zelensky's Istanbul visit), Iran (Istanbul venue and Fidan's talks), Egypt (Sisi rapprochement) and the Gulf.
