/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan does not
intend to meet with American Jewish organizations in the course of his
visit to the U.S.
Erdogan will be the first Turkish leader since Turgut Ozal who will
not meet with Jewish community's representatives when visiting
Washington, AA reported.
Turkey's relations with Israel took a downturn in January when Ankara
launched an unprecedented barrage of criticism of the Jewish state
over its devastating Gaza war.
In October, Turkey excluded Israel from joint military drills and said
ties would continue to suffer unless Israel ends `the humanitarian
tragedy' in Gaza and revives peace talks with the Palestinians.
