Kerry to express concern to Turkish PM over Zionism remarks

 

During his official visit to Turkey U. S. Secretary of State John Kerry will express concern to Turkish prime minister over his remarks branding Zionism a "crime against humanity," which Washington considers offensive and wrong, Hurriyet Daily News cites a US official as saying.

 

"The secretary will have the chance to express his concerns about the remarks" made by Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan at a UN forum on Wednesday, a US State Department official traveling with Kerry reportedly said.

 

"We put out a statement from Washington making clear that the statement was both offensive and wrong and I am sure the secretary will be able to convey that to the prime minister directly this afternoon," he is quoted as saying.
