Abstract :We can suppose that particularly since the Cold War (1947-1991), education policy is an effective tool of soft power to promote national interests of a state in the international area. However, nowadays, many state tends to use hard power (military force) rather than soft power (sociocultural practices) even in the period of Post-Cold War. Despite the fall of bipolar system, Russia returns to hard power and Russian soft power is degrading in the international area. That is why, the research note pays a special attention to the Turkish education policies in the context of Russia-Ukraine War (since February 2022).
