Turkish President Erdogan said on July 7 Turkey will deepen ties with the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), the presidential office said. Speaking after a cabinet meeting, Erdogan called Turkey an SCO dialogue partner and described the SCO as a particularly important regional body, noting its members account for a substantial share of global population and economic output and have “huge potential.” He said at last week’s SCO+ meeting in Bishkek he reaffirmed Turkey’s determination to boost trade with SCO member states.

CITIC Securities reports Senate races remain tight while House contests are leaning more against Republicans, where a small number of seat flips could change control. A mid‑June ceasefire and falling oil briefly eased public pressure, but a late‑June breakdown of a U.S.‑Iran preliminary agreement coincided with Trump hitting a historic low in August. If Republicans lose the midterms, CITIC says Washington political stalemate would likely deepen, raising resistance to the Trump administration’s policy agenda and increasing the risk of a government shutdown and a debt‑ceiling confrontation.
