Turkey's foreign policy moves fast, and it rarely moves the way outside observers expect. I help governments, media, and businesses read it correctly — with particular focus on Turkish foreign policy, Italy-Turkey and EU-Türkiye relations, European defence and security architecture, and international security in the Eastern Mediterranean. Living between Istanbul and Italy since 2019, with a front-row seat at IstanPol, one of Turkey's leading foreign policy think tanks.
