Summary
Turkey Has Been a close Western partner for so long it is hard to imagine it ever being "lost." Recent political and strategic developments, however, have endangered its Western and democratic orientation. Rising anti-Americanism, deflated hopes for European Union accession, civil-military tensions, a secular-religious divide, and ongoing terrorist threats have combined to destabilize Turkey's political system and threaten its partnership with the West.
