الاستراتيجية الأمنية التركية في منطقة الساحل الإفريقي حماية للمصالح الاقتصادية أم تحدي للنفوذ التقليدي الفرنسي؟

Abstract EN

This article deals with the issue of international competition in the African Sahel region from international powers.

Turkish policy in the current phase seeks to develop a strategic partnership with African countries based on the “win-win” principle in economic and political matters, which contrasts sharply with a paternalistic and moralizing French management inherited from the colonial period.

the article also deals with the aspects of soft power used by Ankara to create and strengthen cultural, humanitarian, economic and military cooperation in order to sustain its presence in Africa.
