The 29th Annual Conference on United States-Turkey Relations,
which is organized by Turkish-American Business Council, or TAIK,
and American-Turkish Council, or ATC, every year in April, has been
postponed, Hurriyet reported.
Foreign Economic Relations Board of Turkey, or DEÄ°K, stated
on Saturday that the conference, which was planned to be held in
Washington between April 11 and 14, was postponed due to approval of
an Armenian resolution at Foreign Relations Committee of U.S. Congress
and the following developments, according to the source.
On March 4, the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Foreign
Relations approved a resolution in support of the Armenian allegations
regarding the incidents of 1915. Upon such development, Turkey
temporarily recalled its ambassador in Washington, D.C., Namık Tan,
to Ankara. Experts have been since commenting on the situation as
Turkish-American crisis.
The U.S. prove this as well. Remind that the U.S. Department of
State issued a statement March 19 to alert "U.S. citizens to evolving
security concerns in Turkey, and remind them of the continuing threat
of terrorist actions and violence against U.S. citizens and interests.
U.S. citizens in Turkey should be particularly vigilant in light
of the ongoing "Get Out America, This is Our Country" campaign. We
remind U.S. citizens to maintain a high level of vigilance and to
take appropriate steps to increase their security awareness."
