Washington – Khosh Choksi, Senior Vice President of the International Relations Department at the US Chamber of Commerce, confirmed that a new window of optimism has opened in relations between Turkey and the United States.
Choksi’s special statement to Anadolu came at the conclusion of the US-Turkish conference hosted by Washington on May 9 and 10 of this year.
Referring to the economic relations between Turkey and the United States, Choksi said: “I believe that a new window of optimism has opened between the two countries.”
He stressed his desire for this message of “optimism” to be reflected in trade relations between the two countries on a broader scale, as it is of great benefit to the United States and Turkey.
The American official explained that the partnerships witnessed in the 39th edition of the conference in a wide range of sectors established the foundations for enhancing bilateral cooperation in services, trade and manufacturing.
He added that many sectors such as tourism, defence, medical devices, health, insurance, finance and manufacturing are among the leading areas in trade relations between the two countries.
He stressed that Turkey has a large and diversified economy, and that American companies tend to produce on the lands of friendly countries such as Turkey, which is a very good example in terms of abundance of opportunities.
Assessing developments in the Turkish economy, Choksi expressed his belief that it is “improving. We commend the Minister of Finance (Mehmet Simsek), the Central Bank and government leaders for returning Türkiye to the path of strong economic stability.”
Choksi also expressed his support for the two countries’ goal of increasing the volume of trade exchange between them from $25 billion to $100 billion annually.
“Economies like the United States and Turkey should enjoy this volume of trade and services,” he said.
