Reader comment on item: Is Turkey Leaving the West?
in response to reader comment: Another proof?

Submitted by Nazim Cairo (France), Feb 9, 2013 at 15:53

I was misinformed and since I want to correct my mistake he actually said:" Bizim coğrafyamız içe kapanmayı kabul etmez" , which can be translated as Our geography does not accept closeness (inwardness), meaning e.g propels us to action. (http://www.facebook.com/Prof.Dr.AhmetDavutoglu?fref=ts) . Next time will check before writing.
