ArmInfo.US senators appealed to US President Joe Biden with an appeal to put pressure on the Turkish government.
For example, a letter initiated by Democratic Senator Ron Wieden and Florida Republican Senator Marco Rubio and signed by more than 50 senators states that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's foreign policy has become more aggressive and militant.
"In recent years, he has blatantly attacked US-backed Kurds fighting ISIS in Syria, bought Russian air defense systems despite warnings that they are incompatible with US technology, and encouraged Azerbaijan to use violence to resolve the territorial dispute with Armenia," in a letter.
It is also indicated that Erdogan's government is trying to extradite Turkish citizens from abroad after a failed coup attempt in 2016, and in some cases uses Interpol notices to pressure critics.
US senators also urge Biden to direct President Erdogan and his administration to the inadmissibility of continuing to suppress dissent at home and abroad, freeing political prisoners and prisoners of conscience, and changing the authoritarian course.
