The Anatolia Times-Turkish People's Lack Of Confidence In USA Continues

"Turkish People's Lack Of Confidence In USA Continues
ANKARA - A questionnaire which has been recently conducted reveals that Turkish people`s lack of confidence in the United States still continues.

In a questionnaire conducted by the International Strategic Research Organization (ISRO), the views of the Turkish people about Middle East problems were questioned.

Totally 2500 persons in five big cities of Turkey (Ankara, Istanbul, Izmir, Bursa and Adana) answered questions of the survey conducted between March 7th-17th, 2006. The results were assessed by ISRO experts.

According to the survey, 46 percent support Iran`s having nuclear energy, while 45 percent of them oppose it. This result brings the question whether or not Turkish people understand well the distinction between nuclear energy and nuclear weapons.

Besides Turkish people don`t approve a military operation against Iran (94 percent) nor against Syria (95 percent)."
