    Ahmet Davutoglu, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's key foreign
    policy advisor, appeared in Al Jazeera TV for a special interview.

    Erdogan said historians should examine 1915 Armenian incidents,
    not politicians.

    Ahmet Davutoglu, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's key foreign
    policy advisor, appeared in Al Jazeera TV for a special interview.

    Davutoglu said "Turkey was in a war and lost many people in the
    first period of the 20th century." "1915 events should be assessed
    by emphasizing that historical facts in mind," Davutoglu stressed.

    NATO and EU separate issues

    Answering on a question related to the pressure from Turkey to NATO
    about Secretary-General, Davutoglu said "European Union is a political
    formation, but to defend our security policies in NATO is our right,
    these two shoud not be mingled."

    "By implementing promised reforms, Turkey works in the way of EU
    membership" said Davutoglu, adding "union membership will not damage
    the relationship in the Muslim world."
