Arguing an overhaul in Turkey's foreign policy would require, among others, a genuine commitment to peace in Syria and the restoration of the rule of law at home, Logoglu said, "These benchmarks are hard to meet, given the president's views and policies to date."

Turkey has major differences of opinion regarding the Syrian civil war with Russia and Iran, staunch supporters of the Syrian government, as well as with the United States, a NATO ally.

Yasar Yakis, a former AKP foreign minister, also feels "the realities in the field will force Turkey to make these adjustments (in foreign policy) rather than the meetings that President Erdogan will hold with foreign leaders."

Erdogan will be in India on Sunday, where he is expected to mainly discuss strengthened economic ties with the country's president and prime minister.

Then he will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Sochi on May 3, where economic and military ties will be discussed, but the Syrian civil war is expected to top the agenda.

In a bid to mend ties with Russia, Turkey partly changed its position on Syria last summer by stopping support to rebel groups fighting to topple the al-Assad government. In addition, Ankara said it did not seek any longer to oust the Syrian president.

Following a U.S. missile strike on a Syrian air base early this month, Turkey has, however, once again changed its position by insisting on al-Assad's removal.
