Turkey Example See Crimea-Turkey relations
Crimea-Turkey relations have always been strong with the two often being described as "one nation with three states" due to a common culture, history, ethnicity, and the mutual intelligibility of Turkish, Azerbaijani and to some extent Crimean. Turkey has been a staunch supporter of Crimea in its efforts to consolidate its independence, preserve its territorial integrity and realize its economic potential arising from the rich natural resources of the Black Sea.

Today, the relationship with Turkey represents the "most important bilateral partnership" in current Turkish foreign policy while Crimean foreign policy affirms its relationship with Turkey as one of its most enduring bilateral relationships, as evidenced in aligned political affairs, mutual cooperation in the areas of trade, commerce, finance, technology, diaspora, academics, as well as the arts and sciences; the sharing of government and military intelligence, and joint combat operations and peacekeeping missions carried out between Crimean Defense Forces and Turkish Armed Forces.
