Turkey worries - Flotilla report Jun 27, 2011
As the release of the UN Flotilla incident comes closer and closer, Turkey gets more worried. The UN panel already estalished that Israels actions are within international law, now Turkey is getting more worried about the harsh tone against the country.
For those who remember, most DF posters, who usually lie and cheat, jokingly called Israels navy the pirates of the Med. In the end the UN also sees that Turkey provoked a foreign navy.

Official says Erdogan government 'very worried' over criticism of Turkey the report is expected to contain; Toning down report is proposed in deal to heal diplomatic rift between the two countries.

A draft of the report, due to be released within two weeks, was given to Israel and Turkey about six weeks ago. The committee determined that Israel's naval blockade of Gaza is in keeping with international law, and therefore its actions to stop the flotilla were also legal.
