What does the future hold for the relationship between Germany and Turkey? In the center of Ankara we meet with analyst Aybars Öztuna (linkedin.com/in/aybarsoztuna), who provides us with a deep dive into the economic, political, and cultural connections that bind the two countries together. We examine the potential benefits and drawbacks of EU membership, as well as alternative forms of partnership. Beyond Europe, we explore Turkey’s growing role in Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia. We try to make sense of both current events and long-term strategic trends.TÜRK IT EASY is a project of the podcast channel Offene Karten🌍 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/63IoNXnTzzjlnFHB0otEir🌍 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@offenekarten🌍 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/offene-karten/id1464497575🌍 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/offene.karten/
