A senior Turkish official on Thursday accused U.S. President Donald Trump of jeopardizing long-standing close ties between Turkey and the United States, after Washington slapped sanctions on two Turkish ministers over the detention of an American pastor.
Turkey called on the United States to reverse its decision to impose financial sanctions on the interior and justice ministers. Ankara, however, also vowed to retaliate against the move aimed at pressuring Turkey, a key NATO ally, into releasing Pastor Andrew Brunson, who is on trial on espionage and terror-related charges.
The sanctions have inflamed already tense relations between the two countries that are allied in the fight against terrorism in Iraq and Afghanistan but can no longer see eye-to-eye over a series of issues, including Washington’s support to Syrian Kurdish militia that Ankara considers to be terrorists. Relations have also soured over the recent conviction in the U.S. of a Turkish banker of charges of helping Iran evade sanctions.
Ilnur Cevik, a senior adviser to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan told The Associated Press in an interview that Turkey was still deliberating possible measures but wanted to “minimize the damage.’’
“Everyone’s very disappointed. Nobody expected this kind of treatment (toward) two Cabinet ministers,’’ Cevik said. “President Trump is taking a very small case and jeopardizing Turkish-American relations and Turkish-American friendship.’’
“What the Turkish side is doing is not burning all the bridges but trying to keep the bridge intact and try to salvage whatever is left of the relations,’’ he added.
The White House said the sanctions by the U.S. Treasury Department would target Turkey’s justice and interior ministers, whom it held responsible for the pastor’s arrest and detention.
Washington insists that there is no evidence against Brunson and says he is being treated in an “unfair and unjust’’ manner.
“President Trump insults the Turkish judicial system,’’ Cevik said. “He says the pastor is being kept a hostage in Turkey. He is not a hostage — he is under trial in Turkey.’’
Under the sanctions to be imposed by the Treasury Department, any property, or interest in property, belonging to Justice Minister Abdulhamit Gul or Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu within U.S. jurisdiction would be blocked.
