U.S. tells Turkey It Will Respond Soon to Demand's For Gulen's Arrest
ANKARA (Reuters) - U.S.
officials have told their Turkish counterparts they will respond within a
couple of days to Turkey's demand to arrest Muslim cleric Fethullah
Gulen, blamed for a bloody coup attempt, Justice Minister Bekir Bozdag
said on Wednesday.
Within a couple of days? So, early October? Timing?
Turkey wants the United States to extradite Gulen, who resides
in Pennsylvania, and prosecute him on charges he masterminded the
attempt to overthrow the government on July 15. The 75-year-old preacher
denies any involvement. Bozdag was speaking to NTV channel in an
interview broadcast live.
Washington has said it is cooperating with Ankara on the matter
and asked its NATO ally for patience as it processes the extradition
request for Gulen to meet U.S. legal requirements.
Will the extradition request meet US legal requirements? What ever those may be?
I think if i was Erdogan and was told by the US that they were going to respond within a couple of days to something I was sure that they would never respond to, I'd be feeling a little nervous by now!
ReplyDeletejames it looks like something is cooking for next month
Deletethink october surprise??? x 2 or maybe 3
What do you think about the Presidential elections in the US? Who do you support?
ReplyDeleteally left a response in my latest post :)
DeleteSupport! How can any sane person participate in the farce let alone "support" either of the clowns.
DeleteDo you believe it actually matters which wins? The POTUS receives rather than gives marching orders. We are speaking about america, the indispensable, land of the slave and home of the timid.
