Secretary BrysonOver the course of the past three years, the number of U.S. companies registered in Turkey increased by 50% from 800 to 1,200, another indication of the strengthening economic ties between the two countries.
Secretary Bryson noted that each country brings to this relationship its strengths: "Turkey has strong access to European markets, as well as those in North Africa and the Middle East. And here in the United States, for example, we have a strong patent system and deep supply chains."
Together, the United States and Turkey can reach more markets in the Middle East and North Africa, and assist our counterparts in these countries to achieve greater economic stability.
Like all relationships, this one has wrinkles the two countries need to address to facilitate even larger volumes of trade and investment. Greater regulatory transparency, expanded market access, and improved intellectual property rights protection in Turkey will result in a business environment that will attract more bilateral trade and investment.  
"With strong bilateral commitments from both of our countries, the future of the U.S.-Turkish economic relationship is indeed bright," Secretary Bryson said. "Turkey is coming into its own as a global economic player. Turkey's time has come. Turkey's moment is now."在过去的三年里，在土耳其注册的美国公司增长了50%，从800家增至1200家，从另一方面预示着两国经济关系的加深。
布莱森部长指出，两国都在努力加深这层关系：“土耳其与欧洲、北美和中东市场有着很深的联系。比如，就以与美国的关系为例，双方有紧密的专利体系和深层的供应链关系。”
双方可以一道在广大的中东及北非市场有所作为，协助美国的盟国稳定其经济。
同所有外交关系一样，双方在大量贸易与投资往来外不免有摩擦。更高的调节透明度，推进市场准入以及提高对知识产权的保护将为土方带来更多的双边贸易与投资。
“由强有力的双边关系为保，美-土经济关系发展趋势一片光明。”布莱森部长如是说。
“土耳其将在全球经济中发挥作用。土耳其的时代来了，就是现在。”
