Σύμφωνα με την τουρκική HURRIYET η Τουρκία, η Αίγυπτος και η Τυνησία, αποφάσισαν να μην συμμετάσχουν στην συζήτηση που θα διεξαχθεί ανάμεσα στις αραβικές χώρες και το Ισραήλ για την εξεύρεση μιας μεταξύ τους λύσης. Δυτικός διπλωμάτης υποστηρίζει ότι στις 23 Απριλίου έχει προγραμματιστεί στο ΝΑΤΟ συνάντηση των υπουργών Εξωτερικών των μελών του για ένα διάλογο που θα αφορά τις χώρες που βρέχονται από τη Μεσόγειο, ωστόσο η Τουρκία διαφώνησε και με αυτό. Παρά την «συγγνώμη» του Ισραήλ προς την Τουρκία η κατάσταση στις μεταξύ τους σχέσεις δεν έχει εξομαλυνθεί όσο κάποιοι θα ήθελαν.

Turkey, Tunisia and Egypt have decided not to participate in an initiative to bring together Israel with Arab countries to discuss cooperation for security and stability in the Mediterranean, Turkish daily Hurriyetreported Saturday.
The Mediterranean Dialogue group, a delegation of NATO which was established in 2004, has not met since 2008. The discussions involve Israel, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, Mauritania, Algeria and Jordan.
“The general-secretary was planning to invite the foreign ministers of the Mediterranean Dialogue countries on the sidelines of the NATO foreign ministers meeting scheduled for April 23 but Turkey objected to the idea,” an anonymous Western diplomat told Hurriyet.
Following Israel’s apology to Turkey for the 2010 Mavi Marmaraincident which left nine Turks dead, Western powers reportedly hoped to encourage further discussion between the two countries, and decided to organize an official meeting with the Mediterranean Dialogue group.
“It’s not right that we have objected. This sort of meeting was not held since 2008 because of the political problems between Israel and Arab countries. At this stage, such a meeting would not be useful,” a Turkish official was quoted as saying.
Turkey also reportedly vetoed Israel’s participation in NATO’s Chicago Summit in May 2012, as well as an Israeli request to have a permanent office at NATO.
Despite the Israeli apology, that was mediated by US President Barack Obama during his visit to Israel last month, tensions do not seem to have completely vanished, as is evident by this development.
