[Ynet] Turkish daily Hurriyet reports initiative to resume meetings between ministers from Israel, six Arab countries nixed by Ankara, Cairo, who say 'it's not the right time' An initiative to bring Israel and six Arab countries' ministers together under NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. A collection of multinational and multilingual and multicultural armed forces, all of differing capabilities, working toward a common goal by pulling in different directions... 's Mediterranean Dialogue group for the first time since 2008 has been nixed by Turkey and Egypt, Turkish daily Hurriyet reported Saturday. Ankara and Cairo reportedly said "it was not the right time" for such a meeting.
However, by candlelight every wench is handsome... Ankara rejected the claim. "It's not right that we have objected. This sort of meeting was not held since 2008 because of the political problems between Israel and Arab countries. At this stage, such a meeting would not be useful," a Turkish official told Hurriyet.
However, by candlelight every wench is handsome... the last time the group met at the foreign ministerial level was 2008 -- a reflection of the ongoing dispute between Israel and the Arab world. Western powers hoped Mediterranean Dialogue meetings could be resumed at the ministerial level following Israel's apology to Turkey. The Turkish official dismissed claims that Ankara objected to the idea because of Israel's presence in the group, recalling that the government started to allow Israeli participation in NATO's political meetings in December 2012. Turkey had vetoed Israeli participation in NATO's reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown ... home of Al Capone, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel,... Summit in May 2012, as well as an Israeli demand to have a permanent office at NATO. Hurriyet estimated that even if Ankara did not object to the idea due to Israel's participation, nixing the meeting is mostly to the disadvantage of Israel, which is the most eager member of the dialogue group. | |||
