Brief<\/b>:<\/span><\/p>

The article discusses the United States and Turkey\u2019s antagonistic relationship that can be put back on track because the underlying causes have changed.\u00a0 The author explains that the Turkish policymakers interpret the current situation as more of an opportunity than a threat. The rise of China and the growing influence of Russia in the region are signs of the lasting emergence of a multipolar world order in which Turkey needs its repositioning for the long-run benefits. The prevailing situation complicates Ankara and Washington\u2019s bilateral disputes. The author highlights five major areas of disagreement between the US and Turkey and a possible way to overcome it. 1. Turkey\u2019s acquisition of the S-400 air and missile defense system from Russia, 2. Ongoing US support for Syria\u2019s Kurdish military and terrorist factions, 3. Rule of Law challenges and the US position on the self-exiled Islamic preacher Fethullah G\u00fclen, 4. The possible impact of the Halkbank court case on grounds of past violations of Iran sanctions, 5. The Biden administration\u2019s decision to use the word \u201cgenocide\u201d to refer to the deaths and deportations of Ottoman Armenians during World War I. The author suggests that the Turkey-US relationship is in need of redefinition because the Turkish government wants a \u201cgrand bargain,\u201d in which the United States should agree to discuss with Turkey all the disputed areas in a flexible manner. These deliberations could then lead to mutual trade-offs that would be instrumental in overcoming the prevailing disagreements.\u00a0 The Turkey-US relationship may in that sense be in acute need of gradual but concrete steps, that over time will set a new tone for a more positive and constructive strategic partnership to reestablish mutual trust.<\/span><\/p>
