JNN Oct.22nd. 2011.Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu says the US accusation that Iran was involved in an alleged plot to kill the Saudi envoy to Washington lacks evidence.
Davutoglu made the remarks at a joint press conference with Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi in the Turkish capital Ankara on Friday.
The Turkish foreign minister stated that Turkey does not believe Iran would engage in such acts.
Davutoglu also offered to mediate between Tehran and Washington in the issue, saying Turkey is ready to help Iran and the US resolve the matter.
On October 11, the US Justice Department accused Iran of plotting to assassinate Saudi Arabian Ambassador Adel al-Jubeir, with help from a man suspected of being a member of a Mexican drug cartel.
Tehran says the media hype created by Washington is an attempt to deflect attention from the anti-corruption and anti-corporatism protests currently rocking the country.
Iran’s envoy to the UN, Mohammad Khazaei, has filed a complaint against the US for what he called the “evil plot.”
Salehi has described the US accusation as an immature scenario and says US officials will ultimately be forced to apologize.
Salehi arrived in Ankara on Friday morning, accompanied by a high-level delegation. He has held meetings with Davutoglu, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and Turkish President Abdullah Gul, in which they discussed the latest developments in the region and ties between the two countries.
