mollybaby: Yes, and they are geographically very strategically placed, which makes it even more important.

"The White House has just released a statement on the reports of an attempted coup, saying that Barack Obama and secretary of state John Kerry “agreed that all parties in Turkey should support the democratically-elected Government of Turkey, show restraint, and avoid any violence or bloodshed”.

The state department will “continue to focus on the safety and security of US citizens in Turkey,” the statement added."
