There is no doubt in my mind that Turkey is extremely fortunate to have Ahmet Davutoğlu as its foreign minister, and it is a tribute to the elected leadership in Ankara that so much responsibility has been entrusted to someone without party affiliations, of independent character and of scholarly temperament. Much has been made of Davutoğlu's emphasis on “strategic depth,” but I believe he will be in the end most remembered for his “moral depth.” By moral depth, I mean a dedicated concern for seeking peaceful resolution of conflict through mediation and compromise, based on mutual respect for legal rights and a commitment to justice.
