    Istanbul, 21 October: Turkish Ambassador to USA Nabi Sensoy, who
    was recalled to Turkey "for consultations" after the approval of a
    resolution on Armenian allegations in the US House foreign affairs
    committee, departed on Sunday [21 October] to return to United States.

    Prior to his flight to Washington D.C., Sensoy told reporters that
    he would tell the US authorities about the outrage in Turkey caused
    by the US House committee approval of the resolution on Armenian
    allegations regarding the incidents of 1915.

    Sensoy stayed 9 days in Ankara and had meetings with President Abdullah
    Gul, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Parliament Speaker Koksal
    Toptan, Foreign Minister Ali Babacan and other high-level officials
    to inform them about the developments in the United States.

    "I think my stay in Ankara has been a serious message to reflect our
    outrage," Sensoy said.

    "I will continue to work to further Turkish-US relations," he
    continued. "It seems that wind has started to blow in favour of us."
