Notes
In fact, the Ottoman Empire did not establish friendly relations, nor did it conclude alliance treaties with European countries, such as the relations it established with France during the reign of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent. Signs of rapprochement between the two countries began to appear when Charles V came to rule Spain, and his continued activity in trying to subject France to his control, which resulted in the outbreak of long battles between France and Spain. These wars pushed France to get closer to the Ottoman Empire, and to request help from Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent to stand up to Charles V. Sultan Suleiman found in this rapprochement the appropriate opportunity to limit the expansion of Charles V’s influence on the European continent. The rapprochement talks between the Ottoman Empire and France resulted in the conclusion of one of the most famous treaties in Ottoman-French history in 1536 AD. This treaty enabled the Ottoman Empire to wrest France from the embrace of Europe and strike the European countries among themselves, taking advantage of the religious conflict that broke out at that time. In addition, the success of the joint naval military operations between the Ottoman Empire and France against the Spanish coasts enabled Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent to force Charles V to sign a humiliating treaty in 1547 AD, through which Spain made major concessions to the Ottoman Empire.
