Following the tragic bombings in Ankara over the weekend precipitate a range of questions of particular concern to Atlantic Council members, especially those interested in participating in our annual Energy and Economic Summit next month. Who were the perpetrators of this heinous act? How will this affect daily life and business in Turkey, Turkish policy towards the civil war in Syria, and Turkey's own domestic politics, especially the November 1 elections?

Please join us on Friday, October 16, at 8:30 a.m. EST for a special members only call and conversation on the challenges and deepening polarization facing Turkey. Ambassador Francis Ricciardone, former ambassador to Turkey, and Atlantic Council Vice President and Director of the Rafik Hariri Center for the Middle will be joined by Aaron Stein, nonresident fellow for the Rafik Hariri Center for the Middle East to discuss these troubling developments.

Kindly RSVP online, or contact Kayvan Chinichian at kchinichian@atlanticcouncil.org or at 202-778-4961 if you have any questions.

This call will be for Atlantic Council members' consideration and use only, and will be off the record.
