Summary/Abstract: Since the Cold War, it was a durable friendship between Turkey and the United States of America. They reached full agreement in most of the international issues. During the Cold War, the most important common interest of Turkey and the US was containment of the USSR. In this context, NATO was the best field of their cooperation. Nowadays in the post – cold war era we can see the evolution of the relationship between those partners. Turkey and the US have to adapt to a new international reality which is very turbulent and unpredictable. Cooperation between these countries will be much more complicated as during the Cold War.
