(Financial Times-UK) Daniel Dombey - President Barack Obama has personally warned Turkey's prime minister that unless Ankara shifts its position on Israel and Iran it stands little chance of obtaining the U.S. weapons it wants to buy. One senior administration official said: "The president has said to Erdogan that some of the actions that Turkey has taken have caused questions to be raised on the Hill [Congress]...about whether we can have confidence in Turkey as an ally. That means that some of the requests Turkey has made of us, for example in providing some of the weaponry that it would like to fight the PKK, will be harder for us to move through Congress." Washington was deeply frustrated when Turkey voted against UN sanctions on Iran in June. When the leaders met later that month at the G20 summit in Toronto, Obama told Erdogan that the Turks had failed to act as an ally in the UN vote. He also called on Ankara to cool its rhetoric about the Gaza aid flotilla. 2010-08-16 09:22:56Full Article
