US to Turkey: Allegations that we are behind the failed coup are false

The US State Department on Thursday rejected “allegations by Turkish officials” that Washington was behind the failed July 2016 military coup in Turkey, calling them “completely false”.

Mr Price emphasized that the decision was not a signal of a formal antitrust inquiry into NATO and a “strategic partner of the United States”.

Washington has repeatedly denied involvement in the failed military coup; it has rejected Turkish demands for the extradition of Fethullah Gulen, who is said to be the “brain” living in Pennsylvania, noting that Ankara has no evidence to support it.
