This study critically examines the European Union Institute for Security Studies’ (EUISS) evolving portrayal of Türkiye in its Chaillot Papers. While previous publications characterized Türkiye as a “disruptive” actor in regions such as the Balkans, the latest Chaillot Paper No. 182 marks a notable shift by highlighting Türkiye’s growing soft and hard power as an opportunity for strategic cooperation with the EU. This reassessment reflects broader geopolitical changes and a potential recalibration of EU-Türkiye relations. The analysis underscores the importance of mutual understanding and pragmatic engagement over entrenched confrontation in shaping future regional stability.
