Türkiye and Germany in a Changing World

While Europe is undergoing a major transformation, it remains imperative to discuss more inclusive, reflective and agile tools. We need to successfully navigate in a world that is constantly evolving towards a new geopolitical paradigm in the post-Trump and the post-Merkel era and the post-Brexit Europe that exhibits the convergence of transatlantic and European security agendas vis-à-vis Russia. The inaugural flagship event of Berlin Bosphorus Initiative (BBI) aims to bring BBI Board members, experts and professionals from Türkiye, Germany and wider Europe together, for addressing some major dimensions of the bilateral cooperation, as well as discussing the relevant challenges and opportunities the two countries are facing within the transatlantic and the European context.
