GED BRIEFING: Turkey at the Crossroads – Economic Perspectives on a Country in Turbulence

Dear GED followers,

2016 has been a tumultuous year for Turkey and there are no signs that 2017 is going to be much different. But while the world dedicates much attention to pressures on the country’s democratic institutions, Turkey’s economic resilience could play an equally important factor in determining the outcome of the current upheaval.

PLEASE JOIN US online for our webinar on Thursday, 26 January 2017 at 4.00 – 5.00 pm CEST (Berlin), 10.00 – 11.00 am EST (Washington DC) as we host Turkish economist Dr. Erdal Yalcin of the Ifo Institute and Dr. Kemal Kirişci, Director of the Turkey Project at the Brookings Institution for a deep dive into the critical fault lines in the Turkish economy.

Please register here …it’s free!

Specifically, we will focus on the following questions: 

• A complicated neighborhood: How do current events in the Middle East and Europe affect Turkey’s economy? 
• Missed opportunities? What is the importance of Turkish  - EU trade, and how can ties be deepened?
• How has Turkish growth changed over the Erdogan years? Are current strategies sustainable? 

Please join our discussion online or by phone for the conversation moderated by Samuel George, author of GED’s recent film "The Crossroads Turkey".

We look forward to greeting you online!

If you register for our webinar, a reminder will be sent to you automatically one hour prior to the beginning of the event.

Kind regards,
