The anchoring of the American Warship USS Nitze in Istanbul and later in the Izmit Bay of Kocaeli has some deep meanings. This incident needs to be analyzed together with an article by the anti-Turkish American Henri Barkey, published by the US Council on Foreign Relations, in which Washington sets out the options for “military intervention” in the upcoming Turkish elections Foreign Affairs. Henri Barkey, who was mentioned in the July 15 coup attempt and the Gezi Park uprising, listed Turkey's policies that disturbed the West in the article, and also suggested candidates to the 6-table table.[1] In addition, he used arrogant expressions in his article stating that the President of Türkiye, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, should be threatened.
