US says won't participate in Turkey military exercise

5 September 2010 / THE ANATOLIA NEWS AGENCY, ANKARA
United States Air Forces will not participate in an exercise scheduled for October in Turkey, the US Embassy in Ankara said in a statement on Saturday.

The statement said Turkey had extended an invitation to the US to take part in the Anatolian Eagle, an annual joint maneuver of air forces from Turkey, the US and Israel as well as several other countries.

"The US will not take part in the Anatolian Eagle because its forces have participated already in two military exercises in Turkey this year and its aircrafts have been assigned to other tasks," the statement said.
