A new phase in Turkey-US ties?
Turkey’s relations with the US are seeing a rare boost as Washington signals a scaling back of support for the Kurdish-led SDF, creating new political momentum but leaving risks in Syria unresolved.
Greetings from snowy Ankara.
The mood in Turkey turned jubilant this week after Washington openly suggested that its partnership with the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces could be winding down, potentially settling one of Ankara’s longest-running disputes with the United States. In this week’s newsletter, we look at what the shift actually means for US-Turkey ties. Plus, we look at the other top stories of the week.
Wishing us all a peaceful weekend ☮️🕊️
