Ergenekon case, Turkish Zaman daily reads.
According to the daily, in the course of his visit to Turkey, the

Gordon stated that Obama administration is `very interested in things
that dominate the headlines in Turkey.' However he added that `when
you have judicial and internal political developments, they are not
for us. We watch it closely because it has an impact on one of our key
partners.'
Gordon also touched upon Turkish efforts to settle the Kurdish
problem, saying ""It does seem to be an opportunity to not only fully
integrate all of Turkey's citizens but to get beyond the conflict that
has been devastating Turkey for many years. ¦ Obviously that is
something the US supports."
The U.S. diplomat also underlined the significance of Middle East
peace, Armenia-Turkey normalization, as well as discussed the issues
on Cyprus, Afghanistan, Iraq and Iran's nuclear program.
The day before Azerbaijani mass media spread misinformation concerning
Gordon's statements in Turkey. According to Azeri press, Gordon said
it would be difficult to ratify Armenia-Turkey Protocols without
progress in Karabakh peace process.
