In this and other matters, Turkey strives to act as a “virtuous power,” which requires us to align our national interests with values such as justice, democracy, and human dignity, and to achieve our foreign-policy goals through mutual cooperation rather than coercion.
在这个问题和其他事项上，土耳其努力充当一个“良性的权力”。这就要求我们的国家利益须同价值观（包括正义、民主和人类尊严）相合，并通过合作而非胁迫，实现我们的外交政策目标。
