The Turkey Out of NATO Project 2028: This thesis applies the Techne–Phronesis Negotiation Framework™ (TPNF) to explain the project’s logic. Techne refers to NATO’s operational, technological, legal, and institutional capacity. Phronesis refers to strategic wisdom, ethical judgment, alliance prudence, and long-term political legitimacy. Through TPNF, Turkey Out of NATO Project 2028 can be understood not simply as a demand for expulsion, but as a strategic warning: NATO 3.0 cannot remain credible if it modernizes technologically while tolerating internal behavior that weakens trust, interoperability, and collective discipline.
