Abstract: The Doha Agreement signed between US and Taliban can be seen as a beginning of the decreasing US influence in Middle East. This evolving landscape is especially important for Türkiye as a pivotal regional power. Although Türkiye’s relations with the region have been unstable, the decreasing role of US in Middle East creates opportunities for Turkish diplomacy to pursue its regional leadership. This article explores its adaptation to shifting dynamics and argues that Türkiye’s focus shifted from regional military operations to country-specific diplomacy. US influence on Türkiye's foreign policy remains at the same level but redirected towards the Aegean Sea.
