Abstract

Bir Kuşak Bir Yol (OBOR) projesi 2013 yılında ilan edildiğinde Asya-Avrupa arasında kesintisiz bir ulaşım ve ticari ağ kurma amacı taşıyordu. Aslında Avrupa Birliği’nin (AB) başlatmış olduğu Trans Avrupa Ağları (TEN) projesi ve ABD merkezli ticari faaliyetlere alternatif olarak düşünülen OBOR kısa zaman içerisinde küresel bir boyut kazanmıştır. Kara ve deniz olmak üzere iki hat olarak planlanan OBOR projesi Türkiye’yi yakından ilgilendirmektedir. AB ve Çin’in başlatmış olduğu bu ticaret hatları Türkiye’nin jeopolitik değerini daha da arttıracağı gibi ekonomisine de büyük katkı sunacaktır. Türkiye karayolu ticaret güzergahının Orta ve Güney Koridorları üzerinde bulunmaktadır. Ağırlıklı olarak demiryolu üzerine kurulmuş Orta Koridor Çin, Orta Asya, Kafkasya ve Türkiye üzerinden Avrupa’ya ulaşır. Güney Koridor ise İran üzerinden Türkiye’ye bağlanarak Avrupa’ya ulaşacaktır. Bu projelerin ana amacı üretim ve tüketim merkezleri arasında kesintisiz bir erişim sağlamaktı. Aslında Çin, ham ve işlenmiş ürün ihraç etmekten çok, dünya ticaretini yönlendiren ve kontrol altında tutan ülke olmak istemektedir. Bu yüzden kıtaların kesişim noktasında ülkelerle yakından işbirliği kurma eğiliminde olmuş, bunlardan başında ise Türkiy gelmketedir. Bu çalışmada Orta Koridorun, Türkiye Çin arasındaki ilişkisi ve ekonomiye etkisi analiz edilecektir. Ülkenin jeopolitik ve jeoekonomik yapı ve potansiyelinin projeler üzerindeki etkisi göz önüne alınarak bir dizi değerlendirilmeler yapılmıştır.

Abstract

When the One Belt One Road (OBOR) Project was announced in 2013, it aimed to establish an uninterrupted transportation and commercial network between Asia and Europe. The Trans-European Networks (TEN) project initiated by the European Union (EU) and OBOR, which is considered an alternative to US-based commercial activities, has gained a global dimension in a short time. The OBOR project, which is planned as two lines of land and sea, concerns Turkey closely. These trade lines initiated by the EU and China will not only increase the geopolitical value of Turkey but also contribute to its economy. It is located on the Middle and South Corridors of the Turkish highway trade route. The Middle Corridor, which is predominantly built on a rail, reaches Europe through China, Central Asia, the Caucasus, and Turkey. The Southern Corridor will reach Europe by connecting to Turkey via Iran. The main purpose of these projects was to provide uninterrupted access between production and consumption centers. China wants to be the country that directs and controls world trade rather than exporting raw and processed products. For this reason, it has tended to establish close cooperation with countries at the intersection of continents, and Turkey is one of them. In this study, the relationship between the Middle Corridor between Turkey and China and its impact on the economy will be analyzed. Considering the impact of the country’s geopolitical and geoeconomic structure and potential on the projects, a series of evaluations have been made.
