HURRIYET- Something interesting has happened. After US President Barack Obama replied to a letter of congratulations from Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) President Mehmet Ali Talat, Senator Richard Durbin arrived in the region. Durbin is a Democrat, and an Illinois senator, like Obama was until recently, which means he's from circles close to Obama.
