US Congressional Delegation at BAU

On 29 August 2013, the Center for American Studies (AMERS) organized a roundtable meeting at which Turkish-American relations were discussed in terms of economics, politics and education. The meeting was held with the participation of academics, leaders and experts from the business world and civil society organizations, as well as members of the American Turkish Council (ATC) and a US Congressional delegation. At the meeting, where many issues on the recent agenda of Turkish-American relations were assessed from different perspectives, two issues that will play a decisive role in long-term bilateral relations came to the fore: economic/commercial relations and education, from decision-makers to individuals, so that both societies can get to know each other better.
