    Turkish businessmen cancel visit to Washington

    14.03.2010 16:53 GMT+04:00

    /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.
