US embassy cable - 05ANKARA6827

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

 1. (C)  Charge re-engaged with Turkish MFA Middle East 
Director General Oguz Celikkol on November 18 and told him 
the USG is definitely not/not interested in a trilateral 
dialogue with Turkey and Syria, as the Turks had conveyed 
upon FM Gul's return from Damascus (refs b and c).  The time 
for talk has passed, she stated; it is time for Syria to take 
concrete actions.
