Gabbard’s selection is “bad news” for Turkey as the new head of US intelligence agencies has little sympathy for Erdogan and his practices. Gabbard has openly called Tayyip Erdogan a “dictator” and has painted Turkey’s practices on all open war fronts in the darkest possible colors.
Gabbard even did not hesitate to publish a video on her personal account regarding her positions and thoughts on the Turkish President four years ago. The new head of the United States’ intelligence agencies has also openly expressed herself about Turkey’s position in NATO, stressing at several – different times – that Ankara’s stance should not be in the North Atlantic alliance.
Gabbard has also made no secret of her sympathy for Greece. In 2017, she was in the country, specifically at refugee and immigrant reception centers, and upon her return to the U.S. she joined the Greek political community in Southern California. She even received the distinction of the “Pericles Award” and Mike Dukakis had described her as a hyper-partisan leader with exceptional skills especially in the field of foreign policy. In her speech at the time, Gabbard had insisted that the Greek-American community should strengthen efforts to promote Greek positions in the U.S.

Offices of the country’s intelligence services are located in more than 100 countries around the world and Gabbard will have not just high oversight but total control.
Apart from her role as the US Director General of Intelligence, Gabbard is also extremely pivotal to the country’s foreign policy as it is through top secret information that moves and developments on a global level are determined.
