STORYLINE:
The latest U.S. debt-ceiling saga is nothing but a political theatre-in-the-round, revealing the deficiency of the country's two-party system, said a Turkish analyst.
U.S. President Joe Biden signed the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 into law a week ago to avoid a historic default on government debt.
The bipartisan act suspends the public debt limit through Jan. 1, 2025 and increases the limit to the actual debt level on Jan. 2, 2025.
Since 1945, the United States has raised its debt ceiling 103 times.
