British Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs David
Miliband, who is in the Turkish capital for talks, said Thursday
Turkey was a global actor.

At a news conference with Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu,
Miliband said Turkey and Britain had efforts to resolve "problems"
in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Asked about British government’s stance over the Armenian incidents
of 1915, Miliband said his government’s stance remained the same,
adding that Britain strongly supported Turkish policies.

He also said Turkey’s EU perspective was full membership. He said
Turkey’s membership would be a significant symbol as EU was "a union
of values".

Moreover, Miliband called for a quick settlement to Cyprus problem
and stated that progress in Cyprus peace talks was also very important
for relations between EU and NATO.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
