This study analyzes the multifaceted dynamics of Türkiye-India relations from 2000 to 2023, exploring their bilateral interactions across diplomatic, economic, scientific, and cultural spheres. It delves into both nations’ foreign policy strategies, considering the historical context and evolving geopolitical landscapes.
