  Steinmeier: Turkey allows German MPs to visit Incirlik base after row September 8, 2016 - 15:55 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Germany said Thursday, September 8 that Turkey had approved a visit by German lawmakers to a Turkish NATO airbase after initially refusing access amid a row over the Armenian Genocide, AFP reports. "I welcome the fact the Turkish government has now approved the plans for a visit by the defense committee of the German parliament" to the Icirlik base, said Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier. "With this decision by the Turkish government, we have taken a step forward," he said after months of discord since the German parliament angered Turkey in June by labelling the Ottomans' World War I-era massacre of Armenians a "genocide".
