Didn't Turkey recall its ambassador to the USA?
In NATO, there is hope that the USA and Turkey can work out their new
problems in the near future. `We won't try to explain the current
situation, as that isn't NATO's duty, but we hope that these partners,
America and Turkey, in the near future, can work out their problems,'
said an unnamed NATO official to `Ria Novosti' today.
We remind that Turkey's foreign ministry recalled their ambassador to
the USA yesterday, in response to the House foreign relations
committee's acceptance of Resolution No. 106 recognizing the Armenian
Genocide. But today, Turkey's foreign minister, Rejep Erdogan,
rejected that assertion. `I have no such information. `It is possible
they called him back for consultations, but he wasn't recalled,' he
said. Yet, earlier reports had the Americans hoping for a quick return
of the ambassador, meaning the ambassador had in fact been recalled by
Ankara.
We note that next week the Turkish parliament plans on discussing the
relations between the USA and Turkey, after which an announcement
about their conclusion is expected.
