Host Carol Castiel speaks with Gönül Tol, founding director of the Turkey Program at the Middle East Institute (MEI) and Ambassador James Jeffrey, a senior American diplomat, now Chair of the Middle East Program at The Wilson Center, about the pivotal presidential and parliamentary elections in Turkey in mid-May.
