1. (C) Turkey supports U.S. dialog with Russia to promote
joint transparency on regional issues. MFA Russia Department
Section Chief Meltem Buyukkarakas shared this information
with Poloff in response to reftel points on December 1.
Buyukkarakas stressed that although Russia's power is less
today than it has been in the past, Russia remains an
important partner for Turkey. Turkey does not see its
relationship with Russia as a counterbalance to Turkey's
Western orientation, but as a complement to Turkey's
multilateral approach to world affairs. In this context,
Buyukkarakas said, Turkey welcomes the transparency that U.S.
- Russia talks will bring.
2. (U) Dushanbe minimize considered.
