    ERDOGAN'S SECURITY SERVICES DID NOT ALLOW ARMENIAN JOURNALISTS TO ATTEND HIS LECTURE IN GEORGE MASON UNIVERSITY IN WASHINGTON

    12.04.10

    "The protocol has always been a headache for us," Turkish Prime
    Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said in a half-humorous way at the
    George Mason University at the end of his lecture when the organizers
    reminded him that the event had already finished.

    Our correspondent in Washington says that Erdogan did not say anything
    about his meeting with Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan earlier in
    the framework of the World Nuclear Security Summit. Nor did he say
    anything about the Armenia-Turkey normalization.

    There not any questions on Armenia-Turkey normalization after the
    lecture either. Instead Erdogan answered to journalists' questions
    ranging from issues related to Tibetan spiritual Dalai Lama to Iran's
    nuclear program.

    Unfortunately, at first Erodgan's securtiy services did not allow
    Armenian journalists to attend the lecture saying there were no
    translation equipments. However, they allowed them attending the
    lecture, though it was announced that only students should pose
    questions.

    Our correspondent in Washinton says it was not possible to ask Mr
    Erdogan whether or not he was going to meet Armenia halfway over
    the normalization.
