United States President Joe Biden arrived at his first NATO summit on Monday to make the case for the alliance to reinvigorate the democratic values of its member states. Rachel Ellehuus, who is the deputy director and senior fellow with the Europe, Russia, and Eurasia Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) in Washington D.C, said Turkey is among the NATO members now who present a challenge to protecting these core values and it has company.
“Turkey is not alone” within NATO as a member who has steadily retreated from the democratic values that underpin the alliance, said Ellehuus to Ahval News in a recent podcast. Members, including Poland and Hungary, have traveled along a similar authoritarian path as Turkey while others like Greece are of concern in some areas.
