Kroft when donald trump is sworn in as the 45th president of the United States, hell be forced to deal with a lot of complicated international issues, especially turkey. Its an indispensable but angry assertive, strongminded president who you will hear from shortly, recep tayyip erdoan. Hes been making noises lately about perhaps going his own way in the middle east, and is being courted by russia. If it sounds byzantine, it should be noted that the word was coined to describe the complicated history and politics of this land. With war raging on two of its borders and inundated with refugees, turkey is right in the middle of things, as it has been . . . . . . Its largest city sits astride the bosporus strait, a body of water that separates asia from europe, east from west, and the islamic world from christendom. It was known as byzantium at the ages, before the ottoman hordes overran the city, converted the cathedrals into grand mosques, and ruled an empire that lasted 600 years. Today, istanbul and the republic of turkey still have a foot in both cultures, a muslim population, a westernstyle democracy and natos second largest army, in the most dangerous neighborhood in the world. Ri James Jeffrey extremely important, extremely complicated, at the top of the next president s agenda. Kroft because . Jeffrey first of all, its location. Location is everything. Kroft former u. S. Ambassador James Jeffrey spent much of his diplomatic career in turkey, a country that shares borders with syria, iraq, iran; and the black sea to the north with russia. But more importantly, turkey states and other nato countries at a number of critical air bases like incirlik, that serve as staging areas for military operations in the middle east, and are vital to projecting us military power all the way from europe to india. And how important are those bases . Jeffrey theyre extremely important. We could not be doing the campaign against isis right now in Northern Iraq and in syria without these bases. Kroft so the u. S. Cant afford to lose those bases . Jeffrey absolutely not. Kroft this is the man who allows the u bases, president recep tayyip erdoan, the conservative, nationalistic some would say autocratic leader who has governed the democracy for the past 13 years. We met him last month, at the brand new 1,100room palace in ankara, which is emblematic of erdogans admiration for the grandeur of turkeys ottoman past, and his ambition to make it once again the most powerful country in the region. Policies in syria, that he says have led to a clear and present Security Threat on his southern border, interfered with his ability to defend his country, and inundated turkey with nearly three million refugees twice the number that has flooded into europe. Erdoan translated we have addressed these issues, discussed them with president obama and Vice President biden. They failed to rise to the occasion and handle these issues seriously. This is quite upsetting for us. Kroft you seem very frustrated with the United States. Erdoan translated well, let me be very frank in my remarks, and ive been known for my candor. I wouldnt speak the truth if i said i was not disillusioned. Because i am disillusioned. Kroft president erdoan is not the only one in turkey disillusioned with america right now. So are many of his countrymen, who feel that their western allies care more about their own interests than turkeys. Most of the tension and anti americanism can be traced back the heart of istanbul. Factions of the Turkish Military shut down the bosporus bridge that connects europe and asia, and launched a coup to overthrow the elected government. It wasnt long after that f16s commandeered by a rogue faction of the air force streaked fast and low across the skies of istanbul and ankara. Sonic booms shattered windows. The plotters used tanks and buildings and military bases, and shut down istanbuls main airport. And in something never seen before in the capital of a nato country, the parliament in ankara was bombed, and helicopter gunships strafed the president ial palace. Soldiers stormed television stations and announced that turkey was under martial law. President erdoan was on vacation with his family when he learned a coup was underway. The media. So he used the facetime app on a borrowed phone to call in to a Turkish Television station. He pleaded for people to take to the streets and fill the squares. Tens of thousands responded, facing down tanks and helicopters. As volleys were fired into crowds, erdogan boarded a plane and flew towards istanbul. Were you afraid for your life and the lives of your family members . Erdoan translated steve, in our faith there is a concept. We surrender ourselves to death. If youre the leader, you have to communicate the message of immortality to your people. Because i believe, if a leader hides behind a rock, then the people will hide behind a mountain. Kroft his return to istanbul failed. More than 200 were dead. Erdoan immediately blamed the revolt on his archenemy, an elderly and exiled cleric named fethullah gulen, whose followers had infiltrated the highest levels of the Turkish Military, judiciary, and civil service. For the past 17 years, gulen has been leading a reclusive life in the United States on a 26acre retreat in the pocono mountains. For months, erdogan has demanded that his american ally return gulen to turkey. Erdoan translated this man is the leader of a terrorist organization that has bombed my parliament. We have extradited terrorists to the United States in the past. And we expect the same thing to be done by the United States. Kroft the u. S. Is insisting that the extradition process must be handled through u. S. Courts to evaluate the evidence. The delay has created widespread government is protecting gulen and that its intelligence agencies may have been involved or had advance knowledge of the coup. Members of erdogans government have suggested that publicly. The u. S. Has denied it. Do you believe that there was any u. S. Involvement . Erdoan translated im not going to blame the United States. But thats what my people will think. Why are you still keeping that man . So as long you harbor him there, im sorry, dont get offended. But this is the perception of the turkish nation and the turkish people. Kroft im taking it from your answer that you have done nothing to discourage the turkish people from believing that. Erdoan translated i cannot deceive my people. I cannot deceive my people here. Because im suffering right now. The United States is not suffering. But im suffering because of the 241 martyrs that we have buried. Kroft erdoan had begun a crackdown on the gulenist enemies before the attempted coup. After it, he used a state of emergency to begin a massive effort to purge them from government and turkish society. More than 30,000 people have been arrested or detained, including generals, judges, prosecutors, mayors, members of parliament, teachers and journalists. Another 100,000 people have been fired or suspended from government jobs, and 150 Media Outlets have been shut down. People in the United States have said that this is an overreaction. This is a crackdown on the political opposition, not a crackdown on terrorists . Erdoan translated in turkey, they attempted to destroy my state. And of course, we could not remain silent. We could not remain indifferent. And these measures are being taken by prosecutors and judges in full accordance with the rule of law. Publicly criticize the government. Soli oo . Zel is an academic and a prominent political commentator. Soli ozel i think this has gone beyond s only the gulenists. A lot of teachers have been dismissed who probably have nothing to do with the gulenists. A lot of newspaper people have been dismissed, although they have nothing with the gulenists. And i think a lot of people who really had nothing to do with the coup attempt itself arw being burned. Kroft do you think the government is becoming more and the presidency is becoming more authoritarian . Ozel we are moving in that direction, yes. The presidency has now accumulated a lot more power than is stipulated in the in the constitution. And it will continue to accumulate more. Erdoan translated this is misperception. It is out of the question. We have saved our country from we are very much determined to protect our democracy. Kroft there is a strong bent of authoritarianism that runs through turkish history and turkish life, and erdoans message and actions have played well with the public. After the failed coup, his Approval Rating jumped to 68 . Much of that support comes from more traditional, conservative muslims, who have long been marginalized in turkish society. Erdogan has embraced them, courted them and included them in his government. Ece temelkuran he is a brilliant politician when it comes to talking to Common People and with their discourse. Kroft ece temelkuran is a turkish writer who chronicles the countrys cultural and political changes. She believes this is all part of erdogans vision for a new turkey. Temelkuran the new turkey does not ask you to be more religious. It asks you to be more obedient. Religious and, you know, supporting the governing party. Kroft erdoans new turkey as been a source of concern in washington. While the two nato allies still share the same goals of replacing the Assad Government in syria and defeating isis, each country has its own special interests and priorities. And in some cases its own allies. The United States is obsessed with isis. Turkey is obsessed with kurdish separatist groups that have been waging a decadeslong war inside their country. This is where it gets complicated. The u. S. Is supporting and arming kurdish groups that turkey considers bitter enemies, and they have responded by bombing the u. S. Allies. Erdoan translated you cannot defend another terrorist organization just because they are fighting isis as well. You cannot make a distinction organization. But this is something that we did not come to an agreement with the United States about. Kroft into all this acrimony between erdoan and the United States has stepped russian president vladimir putin, one of first World Leaders to express solidarity with turkey after the failed coup. Since then, the two countries have finalized a major pipeline deal, and agreed to step up military and intelligence contacts. Are you reevaluating your alliance and relationship with erdoan translated right now, such a thing is not in question. We are moving in the same direction with nato that we have always done. Kroft according to one informed observer, what erdoan is really looking for is an answer to this question is the u. S. Truly committed to use all of its power, including its military, to preserve order in the region, stop terrorism and protect the interests of turkey. Its a difficult question to answer, because the middle east is such a messy place, but right now it looks like the answer from donald trump may be yes. His aides have described turkey as a vital ally and called for the extradition of fethullah gulen, and trump himself has suggested he has high hopes for a closer relationship. . Jake reese, .

But despite their achievements, the players say they have been discriminated against, paid less and treated worse, next to the u. S. Mens team.
