will promote economic cooperation in Eurasia by building in this region the
developed highway and railway systems of Western Europe and through the toil of
“Kobi”s (small- and
medium-size industries) in the region. This will ensure direct contacts among
the peoples of Eurasia for creating a commonwealth of nations of economic
integrity and interdependence as is the case with the European Union, says
President Sezer, reflecting Turkey’s “State policy” elaborated upon by the
NSC (National Security Council). How compatible this policy is with
Washington’s global designs is the question in Turkish-American relations on
the eve of Vice-President Dick Cheney’s forthcoming tour of this region
including Turkey and in the aftermath of the Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein’s
answer to PM Ecevit about the American intention to hit Iraq.
