Özet:

Turkey's relations with Egypt, which must always be considered in the Middle East because of its geopolitical importance, has followed a downward outward journey since 1926 when diplomatic relations have been established due to historical ties, regime differences, different foreign policy directions. After the Second World War, the Soviet Union's demand for changes from Turkey to the Bases in the Gulf and the Eastern borders has directed Turkey to the pursuit of alliance with the West. Egypt is in the struggle to end British military presence in its country after the war. The attempts of Britain not to leave Switzerland to protect its strategic interests in the Middle East and to incorporate Turkey into the region by creating a regional defence system have begun to affect Turkey-Egyptian relations since the 1950s. In the regional environment that led to the establishment of Israel in 1948 and the Arab defeat in the Arab-Israeli war, the Egyptian leader Colonel Abdülnasir will speed up the Arab nationality with his charismic personality, his strong speeches against Western imperialism and Israel. The Baghdad Pact, which was established during this period, will cause problems in the Turkish-Egyptian relations. While Turkey sees the Baghdad Pact as a formation that will prevent the Soviet Union from entering the region, Nasir believes that the Pact is established to maintain the existence of Western imperialism in the region. The approach of Turkey to the development in the region from the Cold War perspective will bring Turkey and Egypt to face in all regional crises. The aim of the study is to reveal the influence of international developments between 1945 and 1960 on the Turkish-Egyptian relations and the policy of the Middle East.
