Turkey to send ambassador back to US

Turkey’s prime minister says the country’s ambassador to Washington,
who was recalled a month ago in protest at a U.S. move to declare the
killing of Armenians by Ottoman Turks genocide, will return to his
post.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan says Ambassador Namik Tan will go back to
Washington next week, before Erdogan attends a key nuclear security
summit there.

Turkey’s relations with the United States were strained after a
congressional panel approved a resolution on genocide. Erdogan on
Friday did not say whether the tensions had reduced but stressed the
importance of the April 12-13 summit.

Western nations are preparing to impose sanctions to curb Iran’s
nuclear ambitions but Turkey says its neighbor has the right to
develop nuclear energy for peaceful use.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
