Clinton encouraged Davutoglu to continue dialogue with Israel

PanARMENIAN.Net - U.S Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had about a 45-minute conversation with Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, a spokesman for the Department of State said.

“They reviewed a wide range of subjects during the call, including the situation with respect to Iran,” Philip Crowley told a daily press briefing.

“The Secretary also talked to the Foreign Minister and reiterated the United States’ commitment to help with the PKK as a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization. The PKK remains a common enemy of Turkey, the United States, and Iraq, and is a threat to the stability of the region. And we continue to support efforts by Turkey and Iraq to deal with the problem of the PKK,” Crowley said.

“And finally, the Secretary encouraged the foreign minister to continue important dialogue with Israel because that relationship remains a vitally important one to the future of the region,” he added.
