Cemil Chichek Cancelled after US congressional panel approval of
Armenian bill, Premier Erdogan's visit remains ambiguous.
Government spokesperson Cemil Chichek said that consultations resume
to decide on Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's pending visit to
the United States.
Reminding that Turkey faced unfair accusations at the US congressional
panel which approved a non-binding resolution on Armenian allegations,
Spokesperson Chichek said it is not clear whether Erdogan will deliver
the official visit or not.
Referring to controversial bill, Chichek said "...Turkey does not
deserve this. Both countries have always been in close and friendly
relations, expressing desire for deepening of mutually beneficiary
relations. We have always reiterated potential risks that arise from
decisions incumbent upon historians but given by parliamentarians."
The spokesperson noted that Turkey expressed regret over the move and
said that Turkey stands behind the newly inked protocol; however, the
accord could make sense only if both sides fulfill responsibilities.
