Event Details

Turkey: a partner in crisis, by Ömer Taşpinar Of all NATO allies, Turkey represents the most daunting challenge for the Trump administration.

One year on, an overwhelming majority of the population considers the United States to be their country’s greatest security threat. In the context of a worsening “clash of civilizations,” even more important than Turkey’s geostrategic position is what it represents as the most institutionally westernized Muslim country in the world.
