Description

Does failure in Syria end Turkey's political role in M.E.? Since the popular upheaval broke out in Syria in mid-March, posing the most serious challenge to President Bashar al-Assad's 11-year-old rule, Turkish leaders, encouraged by close ties with Damascus, have been urging the Syrian government to carry out political reforms as the only way to quell the violence. In fact, Turkey, which has for long been seeking to play a major role in the volatile Middle East, tried to engage with Syria in an attempt to end the unrest. Turkey's veteran Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has visited Damascus where he had talks with Assad on how Ankara can help to promote a political solution for the crisis between the Syrian government and a growing opposition movement in and outside Syria demanding Assad's ouster.
