Özet:

It is to the benefit of both parties that the relations between the EU and Turkey, which is an important country in its region, as parties with long-standing relations, continue at a certain level without breaking. While discussing a post-Brexit-weary EU and the future of integration, it is also a matter of curiosity how and how Turkey will take part in this integration. There is an EU that does not want to lose Turkey completely, and Turkey, which has not been able to get a positive sign for membership from the EU for many years, but still wants to maintain its relationship with the EU in a certain line. In order for the relations between the parties to continue at a certain level, the existing Customs Union integration is considered as a form of partnership that needs to be maintained and developed. The Customs Union relations that Turkey has developed with the EU is an area where deep and comprehensive relations with an economic nature are possible. If full membership will not be possible for Turkey in the near future, good relations that will develop on the basis of the Customs Union in the economic field, where mutual benefits are high, will also have a positive reflection on the political field. The study investigates the course of relations between Turkey and the EU and the possibility of integration in the light of external differentiated integration theories on the axis of the Customs Union
