During his visit to Washington, November 27 to 30, Turkish Foreign
Minister Ahmed Davutoglu, discussed the main issues of Turkish foreign
policy, including the Turkish-Israeli relations, with several U.S.
congressmen.
Davutoglu once again stated that Turkey is waiting for an apology
and compensation from Israel over an incident with a flotilla.
At a meeting with members of the Committee on Foreign Relations, U.S.
House of Representatives, Davutoglu discussed the resolution
recognizing the Armenian Genocide, which the Committee adopted in March
of this year. He noted that the resolution could damage US-Turkish
relations and recalled the Turkish initiative to "examine the events
of 1915."
During his visit Davutoglu also met with U.S. Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton.
