Over the course of the last decade, significant changes have taken place in Eurasia’s geopolitical landscape. Since the end of the Cold War, both Russia and Turkey have been moving away from an atmosphere of hostility and antagonism, and towards an atmosphere of increased cooperation and collaboration.

The Jamestown Foundation is pleased to announce that it will be hosting a presentation on contemporary Turkish-Russian Relations by Dr. Igor Torbakov, Visiting Fellow at the Swedish Collegium for Advanced Study. Dr. Torbakov will speak on Thursday, October 11 and share the results of the soon to be released Jamestown Occasional Paper on Turkish-Russian relations. Dr. Torbakov’s research focuses not only on identifying the driving factors behind the Turkish-Russian rapprochement, but also on identifying the factors which could shape this relationship in the future.
