Ahmet Davutoglu to host Germany's Westerwelle tomorrow

German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle will pay a one-day working visit to Istanbul on Thursday, Turkish officials said yesterday. Both German and Turkish officials avoided commenting on the content of Westerwelle's meeting with his Turkish counterpart Ahmet Davutoglu. Yet, in addition to regional developments in the Middle East and North Africa, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's claims concerning German foundations operating in Turkey are likely to be high on the agenda of the meeting.
