For several centuries, Turkey remains an important subject of international politics for Russia. This is due, firstly, to the geographical proximity of the two states, and secondly, to the desire to ensure internal security and regional security, in which Russia and Turkey have been actively involved in recent years. The fight against terrorism, namely with such terrorist organizations as ISIS, etc. is one of the significant areas in the cooperation of the two countries. Turkey needs to develop partnerships in the military-technical sphere with Russia, which has rich experience, to ensure security in the country.
