Die neue Außenpolitik Polens und die Rolle der Türkei
Poland’s New Foreign Policy and Turkey’s Involvement

Summary/Abstract: Poland is recently engaging more actively in foreign policy activities in Turkey and the EU’s southern neighbourhood and appears to be no longer satisfied with its perception as a stakeholder only in Eastern European affairs. In contrast, Poland seeks to extend its influence into all aspects of EU politics. The country is committed to reviving the Turkish EU accession process and this is closely related to its striving for a new role in foreign affairs. The Polish EU Council Presidency in the second half of 2011 is a unique chance for Turkey and Poland to draw political capital from the good bilateral relations and to enhance Polish influence on all levels of European policy.
