Egypt and Türkiye

With the visit of Egyptian President Abd al-Fattah al-Sisi to Ankara, Egypt and Türkiye appear to have closed the chapter on a decade of  diplomatic tensions following the ousting of former President  Muhammad Morsi, the first democratically elected leader of Egypt.

 Turkish President Erdoğan's visit to Egypt last February, along with  ongoing discussions between officials from both countries, marked a  significant U-turn in terms of diplomatic, political, and economic relations. However, this new phase in bilateral relations cannot be fully understood without considering the national contexts of both Egypt and Türkiye , as well as the broader national and international dynamics that have shaped this new trajectory.
