Turkey Blocks NATO Meeting with Israel
(Defense News) Burak Ege Bekdil - Despite a recent, partial thaw in diplomatic ties with Israel, Turkey has declined to agree to a meeting of NATO's Mediterranean Dialogue group, which includes Israel and six Arab countries, Turkish diplomats said. Turkey previously rejected Israeli participation in a NATO summit in Chicago last May. It also rebuffed an Israeli request to have a permanent office at NATO.
