AMBASSADOR'S REMARKS AND PUBLIC EVENTS

US Ambassador Condemns Hakkari Attacks

October 21, 2007

I have been shocked by the news reports today from Hakkari of terrorist violence that has claimed many dead and wounded.  The victims’ families and loved ones deserve our deepest condolences.  I conveyed my sadness to the Foreign Ministry today.  I am committed to working with Turkey and Turkish authorities to eliminate the PKK terrorist threat to the people of Turkey.  Ending this cycle of violence is a goal that unites us.
