Article reports that President Abdullah Gul of Turkey accused the European Union on the 6 November 2009 of 'interfering' by asking Ankara to withdraw an invitation for Omar Hassan al-Bashir, Sudan’s indicted president, to attend an Islamic summit in Istanbul. The row threatens to stir fresh tensions between Turkey and its western allies after a month in which Turkish leaders have forged new trade links with Iran and Syria and provoked a crisis in relations with Israel by ejecting it from joint military exercises. |
