Abstract
The increased focus of Türkiye on Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) has become a significant topic of examination owing to its notable characteristics. While the literature extensively explores the country’s relations with Africa as a whole, there is a limited focus on its specific interactions with the SSA. This study comprehensively examines the diplomatic, normative power, and soft power aspects of the relations with the area from 1998 to the present, by incorporating up-to-date data on the subject matter.
