Turkey does not think that its neighbors, including Iran, pose any
threats. "We do not have a perception of threat in our adjacent areas,
including Iran, Russia, Syria and the other adjacent countries,"
Press TV quoted Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu.
NATO should exclude any formula that will lead Turkey to confrontation
with neighboring states, Ahmet Davutoglu said. Speaking during
discussion of NATO plan to deploy some elements of its missile defense
system, Davutoglu stressed that Turkey does not want a Cold War in
the region.
Leaders of 28 NATO members, including Turkey, will discuss the plan
on missile defense shield in Portugal on Nov. 19, Press TV reported.
Any member of the bloc can put a veto on the plan as NATO's decision
is based on consensus.
Turkey's neighbors are Cyprus, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Iran, Iraq,
Georgia, Syria and Bulgaria.
