Özet

The subject of this study is the establishment of the Middle East Command, one of the defense projects in the Middle East geography in the new world order that emerged after World War II, its purpose, its impact on Türkiye-Egypt relations among the regional countries, and its ultimate transformation into another defense pact. In our study, it is conveyed how Türkiye became involved in the Middle East Project, one of the projects planned by the Western Bloc during the Cold War period against the communist threat, and the perspective of Türkiye towards this project, which paved the way for Türkiye to join NATO for its own security. Türkiye's constant goal of representing the Western Bloc in the Middle East, despite its strong historical ties with Egypt, led to the deterioration of relations between Türkiye and Egypt, and eventually, Egypt viewing Türkiye as an advocate of the imperialist order. In conclusion, the study discusses the transformation of a planned but unimplemented project into another alliance aimed at first military and then regional cooperation, while addressing its regional effects in the Middle East and highlighting the specific implications of Türkiye-Egypt relations, which brought them to the brink of severance for a long time.
