Israel’s participation would imply a commonality of views between Israel and NATO on that issue. While Turkey is taking an increasingly strong position on Iran, it obviously does not want to be identified with Israel’s intransigence, nor does it want that view to influence NATO
Turkey has accepted to contribute to the new NATO missile defense shield even if this has already caused tensions with neighbor Iran. Turkey is also cooperating closely with Western allies in the Syrian crisis and other troubled spots in the region
Turkey accepted the NATO missile shield despite its position in the Middle East and declared that it would take necessary steps as a NATO member. So why should Turkey not use its veto power?
Its population of over 2.6 million includes immigrants from Romania, Poland, Greece, Turkey, Portugal and Italy, as well as other NATO nation diasporas – a melting pot, which enriches the culture, the streets and the architecture of the city.
insisted the talks about NATO plans for a missile defense system using ground-based interceptor missiles stationed in Poland, Romania and Turkey were not stalemated
Turkey is a part of the West in contrast with its religious diversity. With its strategic position, great power and loyalty to NATO, Turkey is crucial for Europe's security
Turkey already has discussed with NATO, during our ministerial meetings over the last two days, the burden of Syrian refugees on Turkey, the outrageous shelling across the border from Syria into Turkey a week ago, and that Turkey is considering formally invoking Article 4 of the North Atlantic Treaty
Not knowing what Prime Minister Julia Gillard, who was in Turkey at the time, had said on the topic he chose nonetheless to wholeheartedly agree with it
We have prepared ourselves if any threat is staged against Iran ... We will target NATO's missile shield in Turkey and will then attack other targets.
I am unaware of any official or any serious discussions for that matter about how NATO might help Turkey in that regard
Forming and leading a coalition with Turkey and the Arab League nations to assist the opposition, by creating a safe haven and equipping the opposition with food, medicine, communications tools and potentially weapons, will not only weaken Iran ... It will ultimately increase our ability to influence th...
I thank Turkey for supporting our NATO membership, which will contribute to the security within our country

Turkey, a NATO member, fiercely disputes the genocide charge, and has warned that formal U.S. steps to use the term will hamper relations. Turkey's Ambassador to Washington Namik Tan sharply criticized a similar statement from Obama in 2011, taking to Twitter to denounce it as inaccurate, flawed, and on...
I promise that Turkey will be the first to defend citizens of NATO countries in any similar situation. I believe in the principle of solidarity among NATO member nations much more than the principle of discrimination, practiced by some of you
Through the years,Turkey, the only Moslem member in NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. A single organization with differing goals, equipment, language, doctrine, and organization.... , andSomaliahave maintained a pleasant relationship
Turkey is considering formally invoking Article Four of the North Atlantic Treaty, which triggers consultations in NATO when the territorial integrity, political independence, or security of any of the parties is threatened.
Next, we have to keep Assad off balance by leaving options on the table. And Turkey already has discussed with NATO ... over the last two days the burden of Syrian refugees on Turkey, the outrageous shelling across the border from Syria into Turkey a week ago
Do not the Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and the ruling Justice and Development Party understand that the flames of the Syrian tensions will eventually engulf Turkey and turn it to ashes?
Through the years,Turkey, the only Muslim member in NATO, andSomaliahave maintained a pleasant relationship
Our NATO ally, Turkey, has already suffered the effects of not only the influx of refugees that it is very generously housing, but also having two people killed on their side of the border because of Syrian artillery
We would accept help from any country on earth willing to support us ... Whether it is an Arab country, Turkey or NATO.
Also, NATO has responsibilities to do with Turkey’s borders, according to Article 5.
