Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The last November’s presidential election in the United States of America have traditionally aroused great interest from the entire world community. As it is known, any new American administration always presupposes, to one degree or another, changes in the policy of the White House, both domestically and in the international arena. Accordingly, the final victory of the Democratic candidate Joe Biden is perceived by many in this context. Moreover, his campaign rhetoric clearly indicated a revision of certain Trump decisions. From the point of view of modern global processes, the situation with foreign policy is especially relevant. And in this case, a thorough revision of the American strategy is expected. The same applies to relations, for example, with Turkey. At the moment, ties between Washington and Ankara are going through difficult times. At the same time, with the arrival of Biden, the situation may worsen even more. On the agenda is the question of the possible introduction of American sanctions against the Erdogan government. Of course, such a scenario is capable of causing a serious split between the two states.
