"What did Larijani say that made Turkish officials angry?" reads the
title of an article by Iranian news website Tabnak.ir.
The author of the article writes that after the meeting between Iranian
Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani and Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip
Erdogan as part of Larijani's regional tour to Syria, Lebanon and
Turkey, Ankara made an anti-Iranian statement, obviously in response
to Ali Larijani's statements.
According to the Iranian website, Turkish Interior Minister Idris
Naim Sahin stated, in part, "We have reliable information that Iran
supports PKK members. The injured members of PKK are treated at
hospitals in Iran."
Referring to the recent visits of Iranian Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani
to Syria, Lebanon and Turkey, Mansour Haghighat-Pour, Vice Chairman
of Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, said to
Iran's semi-official news agency Fars on Monday, "During his meeting
with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the Iranian Majlis
Speaker tried to make the Turkish officials understand that their
policy on Syria is wrong. Besides, Ali Larijani also seriously warned
Erdogan against the deployment of the Patriot defense missiles near
Turkey's border with Syria as well as against Ankara's support for
Syrian opposition."
A tripartite meeting between the Foreign Ministers of Iran, Turkey and
Azerbaijan will take place in the Turkish city of Erzurum on Wednesday,
Iran's state-run news agency IRNA reported.
