The Horn of Africa and the Gulf of Aden, with their strategic locations and rich natural resources, have long remained at the center of global power interests. In recent years, Türkiye has stood out in the region as a strong and reliable actor, guided by the principles of equal partnership and humanitarian diplomacy.
Prepared under the coordination of Anadolu Ajansı (AA) and enriched by contributions from leading scholars, this comprehensive volume examines Türkiye’s political, military, economic, and cultural engagements with the countries of the Horn of Africa and Gulf of Aden. Alongside an analysis of the region’s strategic dynamics, the book presents Türkiye’s peace and development policies—spanning from Somalia to Djibouti—supported by rich documentation, maps, and infographics.
Türkiye’s Hand of Peace serves as an essential reference for researchers, diplomats, and students of international relations, regional studies, and security policy, offering a comprehensive perspective on Türkiye’s role as a stabilizing and cooperative force in one of the world’s most strategic regions.
