Turkish Ambassador to Sweden Zergun Koruturk, who was recalled after the adoption of Armenian Genocide Resolution by Swedish Parliament, returned to Stockholm 19 days later and resumed her activities.
Before leaving for Sweden, the Ambassador met with journalists, the Turkish Hurriyet daily reports. According to her, the withdrawal of the Ambassador is a sign of protest in diplomacy, and Turkey made that step after the resolution was approved. As regards the reason for her return to Sweden, Koruturk replied: “After Swedish and Turkish FMs’ meeting in Finland, the Swedish side declared it opposed the adoption of the resolution. Thereafter the Swedish Premier talked on the phone with his Turkish counterpart and apologized. We have already held necessary consultations with Mr. Ahmet Davutoglu. So, it is time to return to Sweden.”
