Timothy A. Betts for reasons 1.4 (b) and (d).
(C) On May 16, we called on MFA Head of Section for Security
Affairs Huseyin Ozdemir to notify the GOT that Turkey's
remaining detainee at GTMO, Murat KARNAZ, will soon face an
Administrative Review Board proceeding. Ozdemir confirmed
Karnaz's Turkish citizenship. He recalled that MFA's
Director General for Security Affairs (S/CT-equivalent)
Hayati Guven had urged officials during his March visit to
Washington that Karnaz be released as soon as possible. We
suggested that Turkey could include Guven's points should it
submit information for the ARB's consideration.
