SUMMARY:“USA 2020 Election and Implication on Turkish-American Relations” Online Panel
DESCRIPTION:It is less than a week to the US Presidential election and some argue that this election is particularly important, as citizens are on balance seemingly more concerned about the fundamental direction of the United States, rather than taxes or social issues. The upcoming US Presidential election is also significant for US – Turkey ties. The relations between the two have been challenging, as we have seen the two have been at odds particularly over Turkey’s acquisition of the S-400 air defence system from Russia. There is also tension over Syria mainly focused on Kurdish-led militias that have partnered with the United States against the Islamic State over Ankara’s strong objections because these groups’ ties with terrorism. Despite the strained relations, during the outbreak of COVID – 19, both countries highlighted NATO solidarity as well as a strong transatlantic bond. Recent developments in Libya also suggest that both sides may be on the same page. Many would question what is next for the US foreign policy towards Turkey and what are the implications of the result of the upcoming US Presidential election on the US – Turkey ties.
Democrat and Republican approaches in bilateral relations will be discussed in the Panel under the moderation of DİPAM Specialist Adinda KHAERANI, with GMF Senior Fellow Jonathan D. KATZ and Southfive Strategies Founder Jason EPSTEIN as speakers.
Topics to be discussed:

In the year of 2020, why is Turkey critically important to the US interest?
Review on Trump administration’s policy on the US – Turkey relations.
Joe Biden’s remarks about Turkey, would this impact the US – Turkey relations and how.
Possible sanctions over S- 400 purchase and test
Implications of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea disputes on the US – Turkey ties.
