Turkey had recalled Tan after the Foreign Relations Committee of the
United States House of Representatives adopted a resolution on March

Tan said, "our interlocutors understood the message we wanted to give.
We have received satisfactory answers. It is time to return to
my office."
"I will welcome Mr. Prime Minister (Recep Tayyip Erdogan) in
Washington, D.C. at the weekend," Tan said.
Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan will travel to United States to attend
the International Nuclear Security Summit in Washington, D.C. to take
place on April 12 and 13.
