/PanARMENIAN.Net/ A scheduled visit of the executive board members of
the Turkish Industrialists' & Businessmen's Association (TUSIAD) to
Washington on March 16 and 17 was postponed, the Anatolian News Agency
reported.
Abdullah Akyuz, TUSIAD representative in Washington, said in a
statement that `the TUSIAD Board of Directors has taken the decision
considering the fact that the visit is unlikely to produce any of the
constructive outcomes we had hoped to achieve.'
`As you know very well, TUSIAD attaches paramount importance to
bilateral relations with the United States, which have historically
assumed a central place in both countries' foreign policies. TUSIAD
also supposes that the current situation can't contribute to the
revitalization of a constructive dialogue,' he said.
`The TUSIAD Board of Directors would like to reiterate its commitment
to this crucial partnership, and we sincerely hope we can reschedule
our trip to Washington as soon as necessary steps are taken to improve
bilateral relations,' Akyuz added.
