Hubungan Amerika Serikat (As) Dan Turki: Studi Kasus Bubarnya Persekutuan As Dengan Kurdi Di Suriah Tahun 2019
ABSTRACT
This research explains the relationship between the United States (US) and
Turkey with a case study of the dissolution of the US and Kurdish alliance in Syria
in 2019. The US-Kurdish alliance was formed by President Barack Obama with the
aim of fighting ISIS in Syria. As a result, US relations with Turkey are in tension
because for Turkey the PKK, which is allied with the Kurds, is a terrorist
organization. Donald Trump later served as the 45th US president when Syria was
in crisis. The Turkish president continued to press the US, so Trump renegotiated
with Erdogan and decided not to extend the alliance with the Kurds in Syria. Policy
changes as a result of Trump's negotiations with Erdogan are also discussed in this
study.
The research method used in this research is a qualitative method with data
collection techniques through document analysis. Data was collected by analyzing
both printed and electronic documents such as books, journal articles, media and
official websites, namely the White House, U.S Department of State, the Republic
of Türkiye Directorate of Communications, United Nations High Commissioner for
Refugees, and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. The level of analysis used
in this research is the level of state level analysis. This research uses the theory of
the impact of uncertainty or unpredictability in analyzing foreign policy carried out
by Donald Trump.
Based on the research results obtained, it can be concluded that Trump
dissolved the US-Kurdish alliance unilaterally because of pressure and trade deals
and guarantees from Turkey to purge ISIS in Syria. Trump's incoherent policies
have created uncertainty and a negative response from NATO and European allies
in Syria. Trump allowed Turkey to attack Kurds and then imposed economic
sanctions on Turkey.
