create a stronger role for Turkish foreign policy. In recent years, Turkey has been
able to be one of the pioneers in the field of manufacturing military drones and has
proven its success and ability to solve wars.
The study will analyze the role of Turkish military drones in conflicts such as
in Libya, how the battle for Turkey’s ally was resolved in the reconciliation
government, as well as its impact in Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict, and analyze its
role in Idlib province on the Turkish border in response to a Syrian attack backed by
Russia. It will also analyze the role of Turkish drones in its fight against terrorism
with the PKK.

position of sovereignty and power. In Realist Theory, as the realists see politics as a
struggle, and every country must not trust any other country, even if it is an ally.
