Turkey and Iran have long been powerful regional players trying to increase their power and influence in West Asia. The history of the two countries goes back to the Ottoman period and the differences between Iran and the Ottomans on religious and border issues. But in recent decades, and especially during Erdogan's tenure, Turkey has sought to strike a new and balanced strategic balance for all of its neighbors, from the Balkans and the Black Sea to Central Asia and even the Far East and South Africa. In this regard, Iran's foreign relations with Turkey have been affected in recent years by factors such as terrorism, the Arab Spring, Middle East peace, trade, energy, and regional developments, including Iraq and Syria. In this article, using descriptive-analytical method, we seek to examine the issue of what factors affect Iran's foreign relations with Turkey during Erdogan's presidency and what effect does it have on the future relations between the two countries? And using the theoretical framework of constructivism, we have proved the hypothesis that in Iran's foreign relations with Turkey, which is the main challenge of internal currents and political developments in Syria and Iraq and terrorist groups and relations with Israel and NATO, It also includes security opportunities, economic cooperation and cooperation in resolving regional conflicts.
