Abstract:
The official foreign policy doctrine of Armenia is called "complementarism"; the idea at the core of this approach is that various foreign policy dimensions can and should complement each other and need not be perceived as mutually exclusive.

Abstract:
The relationship between China and the two Koreas can be considered as a friendship that is not
completely reliable. North Korea and China have been considered strong allies by the outside world, but
questions arise nowadays about whether that relationship is based on a true friendship. The relationship
between South Korea and China is a somewhat ambiguous one. There exists a complex situation and
dilemmas in that trilateral relation. This article examines the current trilateral relations between China
and the two Koreas in order to draw the position of each other. For this purpose, we explore three
different approaches: China´s position toward North Korea and South Korea; the position of the two
Koreas toward China and their defence; and the regime survival of North Korea and the political and
economic interests of South Korea. The analysis of the relationship between China and the two Koreas
is based on the context of a shared history, culture and the rapidly changing international economic and
political situation together with the regional security hazards caused by the nuclear weapons essays and
missile tests of North Korea.

The European Union, established after World War II, has strengthened the revival of Europe, which has suffered
greatly due to the war in many areas, including economic, political and socio-cultural. At the same time, the
European Union overtook the conflicts between states. The European Union, which has occasionally passed
through major breaks since its foundation, has recently begun to evolve into a new structure called multispeed Europe. On the 60th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Rome, the member states, for the first
time, have mentioned this new structure in an official publication. This structure has led to disagreements
13 among EU member states. On the other hand, it is also a matter of curiosity how the candidate countries
will follow once this structure is created. This study assesses the potential effects of a a multi-speed European
Union on Turkey-EU relations. In addition, it tries to evaluate whether the EU’s new structure will be an
advantage for Turkey or not. In other words, this study aims to explore the possibility of Turkey’s EU full
membership in the EU’s new model.
