MFA NATO Head of Department Alper Coskun told PolMilOff April
28 that no Turkish officials had been designated to attend
the Wilton Park Conference on Missile Defense. Coskun
thought lack of funding might have been a factor. PolMilOff
encouraged the GOT to contact the Wilton Park organizers
regarding financial assistance; Coskun said he would look
into the possibility. PolMilOff noted that Turkey had been
identified as a key player in the issue of missile defense
and the USG thus hoped for Turkish participation.
