Abstract
Turkey’s growing regional role as well as its ideological centrality, then, were also undermined by the coup in Egypt and Assad’s refusal to democratise Syria, which culminated in Ankara severing ties with Sisi’s rule and the Syrian Ba’ath regime. As a matter of fact, the transition which has been underway in Tunisia since 2011 has been considered the most successful case in scholarly debates, displaying an increased democratic endeavour. Freedom House reports that Tunisia, which was characterised as a ‘not free’ country during the Arab Spring, rapidly shifted to a ‘free’ country. Having said that, despite the existing demands of the people for both economic change and democratisation in the region, the majority of the countries are still governed by authoritarian regimes, which has precluded the opening of a democratically inspired form of governance in the MENA region and Turkey’s achievement of its goal to act as a ‘model’ for the entire region.
