    US State Department preparing for Obama's Visit to Turkey
    10.03.2009 18:31 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ `US president Barack Obama's scheduled visit to
    Turkey is very important,' Robert Wood, US State Department spokesman
    reported.

    As he says, at present the State Department is working out the details
    for the visit. Turkey is an important ally, and we attach great
    importance to president's decision to visit Turkey.

    He also added that Turkey might consider the mediating talks between
    US and Iran, but it is still early to speak about it and I don't want
    to speculate as to what we might do. `A lot of it is going to depend
    on Iran and its willingness to engage in the cooperation and to change
    its attitude in a number of areas where we have certain concerns.'

    Responding to a question on Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton's
    visit to Turkey, Wood said, "the Secretary had very good discussions
    with officials of the Turkish Government.'
