Ya'alon: Turkey's stubbornness not help bring about agreement
None
Vice Prime Minister Moshe Ya'alon addressed the Gaza flotilla during a press briefing Thursday that despite "attempts to settle the matter with the Turkish government, it is clear they do not accept the Palmer Report when it comes to removing the Gaza Strip blockage."
Ya'alon mentioned the Turkish demand that Israel apologize for killing Gaza flotilla participants in 2010, saying: "They demand an apology, removal of the blockage and compensation… With this kind of Turkish stance I cannot bring about such an agreement. Their stubbornness cannot lead to an agreement." (Attila Somfalvi)
