The bad news for Turkey is that it can't seek for relations with China nor Russia. China occupies East Turkistan and Russia occupies Chechenya, which will not favor Turkey. The only thing Turkey can do is continue to search for chance to join EU or join the axis of evil, which Turkey has been doin in the recent months shaking hands with Syria. Unless Turkey will gove back Armenians (west Armenia) and Kurds (north Kurdistan) their territory, there will be no such improvements with relations between US and Turkey.
Turkey betrayed us, and they did it in the worst possible way. I have always thought that Chirac put them up to it, promising them EU membership in return. Then Chirac betrayed Turkey, and now Chirac lacks the power to do Turkey any favors even if he changed his mind.
Turkey was our loyal ally for as long as I can remember. An old friend of mine who fought in Korea told me that the Turks were very reassuring friends to have guarding your flank. If the generals had any sense, they would apologize and make up to the U.S. But regretably it doesn't seem to be in the cards.

Here's an interesting interview:
"Founder and Chairman of Leading Turkish Think Tank: The U.S.-Turkish Strategic Partnership is Long Gone
In an interview in the Turkish business daily Referans on May 30, 2005, [1] Kemal Koprulu, Founder and Chairman of the ARI movement, a leading Turkish think tank, reviewed U.S.-Turkish relations. In the interview, Koprulu discusses the activity of the delegation of ARI representatives who visited the U.S. in April 25-30, 2005, and conducted a series of meetings in Washington with the White House, State Department, members of Congress, and the National Security Council, as well as many American NGOs and think tanks. According to Koprulu, the strategic partnership between Turkey and the U.S. is over, despite the Turkish government's claims to the contrary."

"The Pentagon no longer plays a role in the relations with Turkey; it has transferred all matter of relations to the State Department. […] This means that whereas before there were five people in the Pentagon, five in the National Security Council, and five in the State Department who considered the relations with Turkey, now there are no more than five people [altogether]. That is because the U.S. has no strategic partnership with Turkey. This is the first fracture [in our relations].
"The second fracture took place in the attitude of various U.S. government institutions towards Turkey. Previously, the U.S. government – the Cabinet, Treasury, Pentagon, National Security Council, etc. – looked warmly to Turkey. Now there's a negative atmosphere in these institutions, especially in the Pentagon.
