Zadnjih godina, Ankara intenzivira svoj angažman na Balkanu, pokušavajući se pozicionirati kao posrednik i ulažući u obnovu turskih spomenika -- angažman koji je ponekad dovodio do optužbi da ona ostvaruje "neoosmanlijsku" vanjsku politiku.
In recent years, Ankara has been stepping up its involvement in the Balkans, trying to position itself as a mediator, and investing in the reconstruction of Turkish monuments -- involvement that sometimes led to accusations that it is pursuing a "Neo-Ottoman" foreign policy.
