    NUCLEAR SECURITY SUMMIT - TURKEY PM AND ARMENIA PRESIDENT MEET

    National Turk English
    April 12 2010

    Turkey's Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, met with world leaders
    in Washington D.C. on Monday for the Nuclear Security Summit hosted
    by U.S President Barack Obama

    Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayip Erdogan, met with world leaders
    today including Armenian President Serge Sarkisian in the nuclear
    security summit held in Washington D.C.

    It was the first time a major Turkish representative has been to the
    United Stated on official duty since the Narrowly passed resolution
    that declares the 1915 mass murder of Armenian's as genocide in the
    U.S parliament.

    The move had angered Turkish Prime Minister and senior officials to
    such an extent that the Turkish Ambassador in Washington was called
    back to Turkey.

    The vote by the U.S. government was feared that it would strain ties
    between Turkey and Armenia after relations had improved between the
    middle-eastern countries as a historic diplomatic protocol was signed
    in October 2009 to normalise diplomatic ties.

    However the summit in Washington was more to do with nuclear weapons
    which Obama said is more dangerous in the hands of terrorists rather
    then rogue nations such as South Korea and Iran.

    The summit which is being held for two days starting from today will
    host 47 leaders from around the world with the topic being to rid
    the world of nuclear weapons.

    Turkey's Deputy Foreign Minister Feridun Sinirlioglu, Foreign Minister
    Ahmet Davutoglu, Deputy Chief of Staff to the President of Armenia
    Vigen Sarkisian and Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian were
    all present at the meeting.

    Rumours are still ongoing that the U.S. will also use the summit to
    make relations better between the three nations.
