In the News: Giuliani Pressed Trump to Eject Muslim Cleric from U.S., a Top Priority of Turkish President, Former Officials Say

The former mayor of New York, Rudolph Giuliani, “privately urged President Trump” to extradite Fethullah Gulen, a Pennsylvania-based Turkish cleric, the Washington Post reports, describing it as a case of Giuliani apparently “pushing a shadow foreign policy.”

A network of more than 100 charter schools operated by U.S.-based followers of Gulen were the topic of an article in the Spring 2019 issue of Education Next, “Turkey’s Fight Against U.S. Charters.”
