No Yemenis to Turkey’s Al-Qud’s Conference
Odd.
Invited Yemeni participants in the International al-Quds Forum to be held in Turkey by mid November said the Turkish embassy has refused to give them entry visa without any reasons.
The Turkish Embassy has refused to comment. A source in the embassy told NewsYemen “it is not easy to talk with ambassador on this issue.”
Some participants in the forum, organized by many Arab and Islamic organizations under the patronage of Turkish president Abdullah Gul, told NewsYemen the Turkish Embassy has notified them it has cancelled all entry visas until November 20, the date after the forum.
Until Saturday, November 10, tens have repeatedly asked the embassy for visas, but the embassy continued to turn down their requests, said Adul-Rahman Mohammed, one of the invited.The participants have urged the Turkish government to take immediate decision against “this unjustified and unaccepted” stand of its embassy to avoid preventing Yemeni delegates from participating in such an important event.
