A recent analysis by National Review draws attention to former President Donald Trump’s complex negotiations with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. The report highlights a stark contrast between the gangs allegedly responsible for attacks on ships in the Caribbean and groups supported by Erdoğan, which are characterized as engaging in activities that U.S. federal law defines as terrorist acts.
The article underscores concerns about the nature of these groups backed by Turkey’s leadership, suggesting a significant difference in the legal and political implications compared to the Caribbean gangs. This development adds a new dimension to the scrutiny of Trump’s international dealmaking strategies.
