Former Turkish ambassador reveals what happened with the Obama administration during the coup attempt after 10 years
Since the failed coup attempt in Turkey in 2016, statements have shown that the Obama administration was slow to provide strong support to the Turkish government. They refused to issue a prompt statement endorsing Turkish democracy on the same night, even though Washington denied having any prior knowledge of the attempt. The former Turkish ambassador to Washington considers that the American stance left a deep wound in the relations, especially given the continued shelter of Fethullah Gülen in the United States and its lack of response to the organization's issues. Despite Washington's denial of any prior involvement, Vice President Biden acknowledged America's delayed support, while the Obama administration reiterated its backing for the elected Turkish government.
