Strategic Council Online – Evidence shows that under the current situation, no NATO member state, such as Turkey, has a fundamental challenge with the United States as the most important member of the organization.

Despite all the differences, it seems that Washington, as a NATO member, does not want to lose Ankara under any circumstances.
