Yasin Dogan
Columnist Yasin Dogan comments on Turkish-US relations. A summary of his column is as follows:
�Last week Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and US President George W. Bush held a short meeting at the NATO summit in Brussels. As far as we know, Erdogan neither asked to see Bush nor sought an appointment with him. Rather, their meeting was an unplanned encounter.
It�s interesting that during his conversation with Erdogan, Bush didn�t say anything to address the recent tension between the two countries. He either was ignorant of the recent reports sparking tension between Washington and Ankara or just wanted to avoid talking about them. "
