Abstract
Abstract
The disintegration of the Soviet Union and the subsequent emergence of this independent state in the former Soviet space, the international situation and role of Turkey was remarkably influenced. Turkey policy makers sought to spread Ankara''s influence among the Turkey republics of the former Soviet Union and particularly Georgia in the Transcaucasia, who was supposed to be the closest relatives to the Anatolian Turks. Ankara''s intense interest in Georgia is well displayed by the Feed that it recognized Tbilisi, almost a month before it granted recognition to the other former Soviet republics (Mackenzie, K. 1992: 2-7).
