U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who is taking part in the
meeting of the Contact Group on Libya in Istanbul, met with leaders
of Turkish oppositional Republican People's Party and Kurdish "Peace
and Democracy" party.
During the meeting members of the Republican People's party were
shocked by Clinton's question why the oppositionists spoke against
the Armenian-Turkish Protocols, Hurriyet newspaper reports.
"The authorities say they do not submit Armenia-Turkey accords to
parliament for ratification, as Republican People's party speaks
against it" Clinton said. The party leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu was
greatly surprised at the statement, saying the authorities form
a majority in the parliament and they may pass the documents at
any time. He stressed the Turkish authorities did not provide them
information on the protocols and the Karabakh problem and they were
forced to keep track of the developments through mass media.
