Turkey - Canada Business Council Meeting
ERMAN: CERTAIN MEANINGLESS POLITICAL SUBJECTS HAVE INSULTED THE
FEELINGS OF THE TURKS
ISTANBUL (AA) - Turkey's Ambassador in Ottowa Aydemir Erman has
indicated today (Monday) that certain meaningless political subjects,
like assertions of a so-called Armenian genocide, have insulted the
feelings of the Turks.
Participating in the Turkey-Canada Business Council's Third
Joint Annual Conference, within the framework of Foreign Economic
Relations Organization, Erman stressed that Istanbul has been the
center of global attention for centuries and that Istanbul still is
the center of global attention.
Erman said that Turkey is in a much better shape today compared
to ten years ago. Turkey continues to attract foreign businessmen for
investments, told Erman.
Erman commented that the Canadian businessmen should not miss
the Turkish train. ''Canadian business circles must take advantage of
the Turkish economy's incentives for foreign investors. The Canadians
should not miss the Turkish train of opportunities,'' expressed
Erman.
''Certain political topics, as the so-called Armenian genocide,
have offended the Turkish people. Turks think that they do not
deserve such a treatment accusing them of a genocide. We think that
this topic is a road accident that should not have a negative impact
on our relations,'' mentioned Erman.
Meanwhile, Canadian ambassador in Ankara Michael Leir has stated
that his embassy is doing all it can to develop the ties between
Turkey and Canada. ''Even during the economic crisis, we (Canadians)
thought that Turkey had a good potential. We are impressed with the
economic conditions in Turkey today,'' told Leir.
Turkey-Canada Business Council Co-Chair Ron Denom has remarked
that the Turkish economy looks like an economic spring. ''Our firms
can be good partners for your companies. Canada is a friend of Turkey
that does honest business,'' expressed Denom.
According to Denom, after a period of ups and downs, inflation
rates in Turkey went down, various important reforms were made and
the Turkish economy became a prominent one in the region. ''There has
never been a better time to do trade with Turkey,'' indicated Denom.
Turkey-Canada Business Council Chairman Yilmaz Arguden has
commented that the political and economic stability in Turkey will
contribute to the growth of Turkey.
