Biden ‘looking forward to working with whoever’ wins Turkey election

US President Joe Biden is “looking forward to working with whoever” wins Turkey’s knife-edge election, the White House says, praising the NATO ally for holding a peaceful vote.

“We congratulate the Turkish people for expressing their desires at the ballot box in a peaceful way,” National Security Council spokesman John Kirby tells reporters, noting that the ultimate winner is yet to be decided.

Turkish officials have confirmed that there will be a second-round vote.
