Gul: The issues of Incirlik and Armenians are completely separate
At A press conference, Thursday, held between the visiting Foreign Minister
of Congo Rodolphe Adada and Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul, Gul said that the
issues of whether to utilize the the Incirlik air base and a possible new
resolution in the US congress on the so-called Armenian genocide were
completely separate matters.
“I have elaborated on on Incirlik in the recent past. Certain demands for
cooperation do exist. yet these are not well portrayed in the media. We are
currently thinking on this topic and will evaluate the matter. The Armenian
matter is a totally separate issue. The topic of Armenians is known very
well by former US governments and that of President Bush. We are very
hopeful that when the right time arrives the American administration will
demonstrate the essential sensitivity.”
Gul also thanked the Foreign Minister of Congo for their meeting, which was
primarily to discuss ways of developing trade between to two countries, and
expressed his happiness over meeting with him.
