Warning from İlter Turan about Trump: Something to be very afraid of for Turkey as well

Professor İlter Turan, writing for EKONOMİ, warned that a US midterm outcome giving Democrats majorities in both the Senate and the House of Representatives could push President Trump toward harsher and less predictable foreign policy moves. Turan argued that this shift carries significant risks for Turkey, saying there is "much to fear" in the new period. The commentary ties the legislative result directly to Ankara's exposure, framing a divided Washington as a source of volatility rather than restraint in US external behavior. Investors and policymakers should watch how the Trump administration translates domestic political pressure into decisions on trade, sanctions and security that affect Turkish markets and diplomacy.
