The foreign policymakers of the Trump administration need to clarify how the U.S.-Russian relations will go on

When it comes to the Middle East, it has been a common occurrence to witness that Western governments occasionally accuse certain countries in the region of breaching fundamental human rights.

Since Trump took over the presidency, there has been a lack of strategy in U.S. foreign policy

The crisis in the Gulf region has been occupying the international agenda while the years-long problems in the Middle East are still waiting to be resolved

SETA Foreign Policy Studies Director Ufuk Ulutaş said that the recent Gulf crisis is an attempt to redesign Middle East politics and it is not about the alleged support of terrorism by Qatar, but rather a result of Qatar following its own terms in regional matters.

Washington's flawed Daesh policy, which was cooked for Barack Obama and reheated for Mr. Trump, pushed regional powers to use terrorist groups as proxies.

The U.S.'s gameplan with the YPG militants, again, evidently fails to find a solution to the clashes in the region

If Trump continues to be manipulated by Obama's advisers to determine his Syria policy, he'll be remembered as a failed U.S. president in the future just like Obama

The YPG decision, which was an irrational move even for the U.S. itself, was an attempt by Obama's men to sabotage the upcoming Erdoğan-Trump meeting

There is still not an exit strategy and there is still the lack of transparency in the U.S. arrangement with the YPG.

Seeking a balanced policy with the U.S. and Russia in the region, Turkey is determined to not let the Kurdish militants form any kind of entity

Erdoğan and Putin, who discussed bilateral trade relations and amuch-debated solution to the Syrian crisis, completed their meeting more positively than ever

The "red line" statement, the incoherence in statements and lack of action defined the U.S. policy toward the region. This policy of course caused a major challenge in Turkish-U.S. relations

Turkey, which liberated the Azaz-Jarablus and al-Bab areas from Daesh terrorists as part of Operation Euphrates Shield, will not move out from the region until the Syrian equation is determined.

Turkey's decision to extend its existing offensive in Syria is quite audacious, but it has no choice other than to assume its active role in the Syrian civil war, which is the root cause of many problems in the Middle East

It has always been hard for U.S. administrations to determine foreign policy, and there have always been different voices in Washington D.C. arguing over it, that's the reason for today's absence of any decisions in the U.S.

The United States wants to get involved in the Syrian crisis again rapidly and effectively.
