Yeni Safak: Gul: Syrian- Turkish relations are increasingly progressing

Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul Wednesday stressed that the Syrian-Turkish relations are witnessing increasing progress and cooperation, adding that the problems which previously drove the two countries' relations apart were artificial, and are now replaced by friendship and cooperation.

In a statement to Turkish "Yeni Safak " Newspaper, he added that there is no sense for enmity between the two countries because this is like a family relationship, alluding to the Turkish archeological sites and antiquities that are located in Syria.
