Abstract:
Turkey can't be described geographically by it's subordination to one territory only, Its regional structure makes it capable of maneuvering in more than one area at a time to appear to control a very wide area of influence. Its area is composed of the confluence of two continents : Asia, Europe and only the Mediterranean from the northern shores of Africa .This unique geographical location is of great importance and its regional and international status. The study is problematic because of the nature of Turkey's regional role towards the Gulf states, the reasons for this trend and the impact of the natural and human characteristics of Turkey and the Gulf countries on Turkey's direction .The Justice and Development Party (AKP) recognizes the government and its role in the events of the change in Turkey's policy from 2002 to 2017 (present time), the impact of the regional changes that occurred in the Arab region due to the occupation of Iraq in 2003 and the repercussions of the so - called Arab Spring in 2010, Syria and Libya, and this vacuum produced an Iranian expansion is not welcomed by the Gulf States and the United States and the West, so emerged the need for Turkey, which has the characteristics of natural and influential human characteristics combined with the Gulf countries and the most important Islamic religion to try to work to balance the expansion of Iran in the region, energy resources Especially the oil and gas, which lacks Turkey from the Gulf countries of strategic and geo - economic importance regionally and globally towards the consumer markets, as well as highlighting the failure of Turkey to join the European Union, which motivated the direction of the Arab Gulf States (the Arab Cooperation Council), which was focused on the exception of Iraq, The researcher used a number of analytical, regional and functional approaches, in order to demonstrate the importance and nature of the role that Turkey wants to play through its orientation to the region. The research was divided into five chapters, The first chapter dealt with the natural characteristics of Turkey, while the second chapter focused on human characteristics.
