Summary/Abstract: On 10 July, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan agreed to submit a protocol to the Turkish parliament approving Sweden’s membership of NATO and pledged to revive discussions on Türkiye’s accession to the European Union. The return to a pro-Western narrative and attempts at a new opening in relations with the EUand the U.S. are mainly motivated by the economic factor. At the same time, the Turkish authorities continue their transactional approach to foreign policy, which translates into a desire to maintain good relations with Russia.
