Biden Lifts Sanctions on Turkey, Revises 2019 Executive Order 13894 Tied to Operation Peace Spring
Jan 17, 2025, 06:31 AM
U.S. President Joe Biden has revised an executive order originally issued in 2019 during Turkey's Peace Spring Operation in Syria, which imposed sanctions on Turkey. The updated order removes all references to Turkey, effectively lifting the sanctions and easing restrictions that had been in place since the original executive order, signed by then-President Donald Trump on October 14, 2019. The revisions also include the removal of strong rhetoric associated with the operation and the lifting of visa restrictions against Turkey.
