WASHINGTON – Arizona’s senior U.S. Senator Kyrsten Sinema today released the following statement praising the appointment of former Arizona Senator Jeff Flake as America’s Ambassador to Turkey:
“Jeff Flake served Arizona with distinction in both chambers of Congress, where he sought compromise, collaboration, and cooperation. Those skills will serve him and America well as he represents our nation in a part of the world critical to America’s security interests. Jeff’s nomination comes at a critical time, when America needs thoughtful statesmanship in Turkey. I look forward to supporting his nomination, and I know he will make us proud.”
