Within this context, geographical features ofthe area, the importance of energy resources objectives and roles of the U.S. and the EU states in spatial regulation, Turkey’s attitude towards the possible developments due to the historical and geographic relations.Not distributing the geographic features to each country equally cause organization of plans and projects for sharing the mentioned features and border disagreements, revolts and civil wars. The Arab Spring Movement being experienced in North African and Middle Eastern states are an example of this situation and is important for forming the new world order.
