The US administration under new leadership wasted little time taking a widely expected stronger stance on Turkey. Last Tuesday, a bipartisan group of more than 50 US senators signed a letter urging President Joe Biden to press his Turkish counterpart on human rights abuses and his increasingly “belligerent and combative” foreign policy.
The next day, the US State Department called on Turkey to release philanthropist and activist Osman Kavala, who has been imprisoned for more than three years without conviction. “The specious charges against Kavala, his ongoing detention, and the continuing delays in the conclusion of his trial,” the State Department chided, “undermine respect for the rule of law and democracy.”
