Both countries went through the crisis in the period that was covered by the research results of this article. Although different by the political and ideological social order, some of the same challenges led to closer cooperation. After the Turkish Army overtook the political power in 1980, General Kennan Evren visited Yugoslavia in 1982. This visit resulted in most of the similar political standpoints of the both political (military) leadership. Close political understanding was shown, except for the question of the Cyprus. Author pinpointed the problem of the relevant archival sources from the Military Archive in Belgrade. Although the 30 years of the historical distance was established, the relevant archival materials on this subject are still not opened for the researchers.
