Although the deep-rooted conflicts between neither Greece and Turkey nor Armenia and Turkey were resolved via these processes, the bilateral relationships between the countries have significantly differed. This paper argues that two key main reasons lie behind this difference: the nature of the initiatives taken during the two processes and the influence of external actors on the course of the bilateral relations between Turkey and Greece, on the one hand, and Turkey and Armenia on the other hand.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessArmeniaTurkeyGreeceRapprochementTurkish foreign policyConflictThe EUTurkey's rapprochements with Greece and Armenia: Understanding path breaking stepsArticle431449319WOS:00047235370000110.1080/14683857.2019.16297532-s2.0-85067701359Q2Q1
