Hurriyet, Turkey
June 20 2006
Speaking in Baku at the opening day of a meeting of foreign ministers
at the Islamic Conference Organization (IKO), Foreign Minister
Abdullah Gul underlined the need for reforms in the Islamic world,
saying “If we want to provide answers to the problems of this century,
reforms are not a choice, but a requirement.”
Gul also touched on Israel and Palestine, saying he wished for them
to be accepted as two separate states co-existing side by side.
Gul also made a call for Armenia to pull out of Azeri lands, as well
as a call for an end to the embargo and isolationary measures against
Northern Cypriot Turks.
