THE IMPA CT OF THE REFUGEE CRISIS ON THE RELATIONS BETWEEN TURKEYAND THE EU: FROMEUACCESSIONPROCESS TOWARDSA “STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP”?

Öz:

Türkiye ve AB arasında, Suriye iç savaşının ortaya çıkardığı mülteci krizinin Avrupa'ya yansımalarının arttığı ve krizin bir "Orta Doğu ve yakın bölge krizi" olmaktan çıktığı dönemde ani bir yakınlaşma yaşanmıştır. Bu çalışma, mülteci krizinin bir "Avrupa krizi" olmaya başladığı 2015 yılının sonbahar ayları ile krizin çözümüne yönelik önemli kararların alındığı Mart 2016 arasında Türkiye ve AB arasında gerçekleşen yakınlaşmayı mercek altına almaktadır. Çalışma, aynı zamanda, mülteci krizinin yönetimi konusunda Türkiye ve AB arasında varılan mutabakatın ikili ilişkilerin kurumsal mimarisine etkilerini analiz etmektedir. Mülteci krizi döneminde, AB ve Türkiye arasında varılan mutabakat ve oluşturulan ikili diyalog mekanizmaları, ikili ilişkilerin AB katılım süreci çerçevesinden çok bir "stratejik ortaklık" çerçevesinde gelişmesine imkân tanımaktadır. Kriz döneminde geliştirilen yeni diyalog mekanizmaları, AB'nin stratejik ortakları ile kurduğu mekanizmalarla büyük benzerlik göstermektedir. AB'nin resmi belgelerinde Türkiye tanımının ,,önemli ortaktan" ,,kilit bir stratejik ortağa" dönüşmesi de bu bulguyu desteklemektedir.

Öz:

Following the transformation of the Syrian refugee crisis from “crisis of the Middle East and the wider neighborhood” to “European crisis”, sudden rapprochement between Turkey and the EU occurred. This article studies the rapprochement between Turkey and the EU that took place between autumn 2015, when the refugee crisis started to become “European crisis”, and March 2016, when critical decisions were taken regarding the framework of the cooperation between Turkey and the EU on the management of the refugee crisis. The article, furthermore, analyses the implications of the deal between Turkey and the EU on dealing with the refugee crisis for the institutional architecture of the relations between the two parties. The EU-Turkey refugee deal and the bilateral dialogue mechanisms established throughout the crisis foster the development of the bilateral relations between Turkey and the EU outside the framework of Turkey’s EU accession process and towards “strategic partnership.” The bilateral dialogue mechanisms established throughout the crisis greatly resemble the mechanisms established between the EU and its official strategic partners.
