Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmed Davutoglu met with Turkish Ambassador to US, Namik Tan, recalled for political consultations following US House Foreign Affairs Committee passage of Armenian Genocide resolution.

Discussions focused on steps to be taken following Obama’s possible use of Genocide term in his annual address. As Stargazete reported, there’s a possibility Ankara will freeze USD 1.2 billion contract with US for the purchase of F-35 multirole fighters, 14 CH-47 Chinook helicopters, also halting negotiations for the sale of Patriot missiles. Turkey has also threatened Washington with restriction of support in Afghanistan and Iraq operations.
