Obama received newly-appointed diplomats to the United States, including Turkish Ambassador Namık Tan, at the White House. After presenting his letter of credence to Obama, Tan has officially become Turkey’s Ambassador to the US.
Tan replaced Nabi Şensoy who was appointed at the Foreign Ministry in Ankara following a row between the Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu and the former ambassador Nabi Şensoy during Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s visit to the US.
Tan previously served as the first secretary and counselor at Turkey’s Embassy in Washington D.C., the head of United States Department of the Ministry, the secretary of the Foreign Minister, the spokesman for the Ministry, the Turkish Embassy in Israel, and deputy undersecretary of the Ministry.
