BERLIN: About 40 mostly high-ranking Turkish soldiers who worked at Nato facilities in Germany but were suspended after the failed coup in Turkey in July have requested asylum in Germany, news magazine Der Spiegel and broadcaster ARD reported on Saturday.
** comment was immediately available from the government or Nato officials. The reports of the asylum applications filed by Turkish soldiers in Germany came as Chancellor Angela Merkel prepares to travel to Turkey to meet President Tayyip Erdogan. Ties between the two Nato partners have been strained over issues including alleged spying by Turkish clerics in Germany, German concerns about Turkey’s *****down on dissidents, and Ankara’s accusation that Berlin is harbouring militants from the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) and far-leftists of the DHKP-C. The report quoted officials with German federal migration ****** and the interior ministry as saying that the asylum applications would be handled as all others. **rbert Roettgen, head of the parliamentary foreign affairs committee, told Spiegel that political considerations could **t play a role in asylum cases. Nato Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg told a conference in **vember that some Turkish military ******rs posted to Nato in Europe had requested asylum but gave ** specific numbers. Reuters reported in October that Turkey had fired hundreds of senior military staff serving at Nato in Europe and the United States after the coup. أكثر... ??????? ??????: Turkish Nato soldiers seek asylum in Germany || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
