The official Ankara has not yet applied to Armenia with the request
to help in the elimination of consequences of the earthquake, deputy
head of the rescue service of the Emergency Situations Ministry Nikolay
Grigoryan told Armenpress. A number of countries, including Armenia,
expressed readiness to assist Turkey in the search and rescue works
in the earthquake zone.
By the way, today Ankara has officially asked assistance of Israel
but the nature of the assistance is not clear yet.
It is remarkable that though Turkey and Israel were allies during a
long period of time, recently their relations have become very tensed
connected with the attack against the Turkish flotilla in the neutral
zone of Gaza as a result of which nine citizens of Turkey were killed.
Israel refused to officially apologize to Turkey.
