Davutoğlu focuses on Iran in Munich talks

8 February 2010 / TODAY'S ZAMAN WITH WIRES, ANKARA
The German city of Munich, which has been hosting an annual international security conference from Friday until today, was the venue on Saturday for Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu’s bilateral talks with counterparts from various countries.

Most of Davutoğlu’s talks apparently focused on global concerns over the nuclear ambitions of Turkey’s neighbor Iran. He met with the new chief of the UN nuclear agency and reiterated Turkey’s support in resolving the global dispute surrounding Iran’s controversial nuclear program, the Anatolia news agency reported. Davutoğlu informed International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director-General Yukiya Amano about his impressions after talks with Iranian officials in Tabriz, which took place in November.

Davutoğlu also had talks with US National Security Advisor James Jones and US Deputy Secretary of State James Steinberg, who arrived in Munich from Yerevan, where last week they met with Armenian President Serzh Sarksyan and Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandyan as well as with Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev.

Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki, who was in Ankara last week; Richard Holbrooke, the US special envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan; NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen; Spanish Foreign Minister Miguel Angel Moratinos, whose country holds the rotating presidency of the European Union; French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner; and Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt were among other dignitaries with whom Davutoğlu had bilateral talks in Munich.
