Turkey Vetos “Israeli” Bid for Opening NATO Office
Local Editor
Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmad Davutoglu stated on Sunday that his country will block an "Israeli" bid to open a representation office at NATO headquarters, noting that the data collected by a radar system eastern Turkey would not be shared with "Israel", Hurriyet Daily News website reported.
In an interview with CNNTurk news channel, Minister Davutoglu said, ""Israel" recently made an attempt to open an office at NATO [headquarters] in Brussels. We said we would veto this attempt and the issue was not even put in the agenda".
An official from the Turkish Foreign Ministry told the Hurriyet Daily News that "Israel" made the request under NATO's Mediterranean Dialogue program.
Furthermore, the Turkish daily noted that the "Israeli" enemy has attempted to have its request approved earlier this month after Ankara downgraded its ties with "Israel" when refusing to apologize for the attack on the Gaza-bound Freedom Flotilla.
The Turkish Foreign Ministry official went on to say that the issue would not even make its way onto NATO's agenda after Turkey threatened to use its veto.
Moreover, Minister Davutoglu affirmed that the information provided by a US radar system as part of the NATO missile-shield project will only be available for the members of the alliance, and they will not be shares with "Israel".
"We will provide support only for systems that belong to NATO and are used solely by members of NATO", Ahmad Davultoglu stressed.
On another hand, Davutoglu added in his interview with CNNTurk that his country was seeking support from the Arab League, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation and the African Union for a planned application to the International Court of Justice for an advisory opinion on Whether "Israel's" blockade of the Gaza Strip was lawful.
In this context, Turkish Foreign Minister stated, "The process will probably reach a certain point in October and we will make our application".
He further pointed out that the aforementioned joint regional initiative aims at securing a legal condemnation of Gaza's blockade and refute a recent UN panel report that stated the "Israeli" siege was legal.
