    Turkey

    Ankara, 28 April: In a meeting held on Tuesday [28 April], the
    Turkish National Security Council (MGK) stressed that "joint history
    of Turkish and Armenian nations should be evaluated with an objective
    and scientific approach that is supported by undisputable proofs and
    documents and is free of all pre-conceived notions".

    The MGK discussed Turkey's would-be additional contributions to the
    International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Afghanistan.

    In a statement issued after today's meeting, the MGK said that issues
    pertaining to Turkey's security were discussed and a will to continue
    the fight against terror in democracy and a setting under the rule
    of law was stressed.

    "We have evaluated our relations with Iraq and discussed in details
    the fight against terrorist incidents stemming from north of Iraq. The
    issue of Turkey's energy needs was discussed from political, strategic
    and diplomatic perspectives. We welcome with pleasure the early
    elections that took place in the [self-declared] Turkish Republic of
    Northern Cyprus (TRNC) in a peaceful atmosphere," the MGK also said.
