土耳其与美国当局拒绝评论持续报道,美国中央情报局局长正在秘密访问土耳其。最先报道的所谓旅行新闻是在星期一的土耳其小报“正义与发展“。该报说,戴维彼得雷乌斯,负责美国最重要的文职情报机构,乘坐他的私人飞机,已经到了当天早些时候在伊斯坦布尔的国际机场。根据文章,美国中央情报局局长开始不公布的旅行为与土耳其的高级官员讨论“反恐和叙利亚局势”。几个小时后,法国新闻社法新社报道,据一位“美国官员”称,中央情报局局长确实在土耳其,举行秘密会议的区域问题”。

然而,该“美国官员”将不提供具体信息关于戴维彼得雷乌斯在土耳其会议的内容,也不透露被安排与他会面的土耳其官员姓名。另一个土耳其报纸,说中央情报局局长可能会遇到与土耳其外长及土耳其总理见面。代表美国驻安卡拉大使馆,以及土耳其官员拒绝证实彼得雷乌斯是否在该国。他们的反应似乎经过协调,土耳其外交部和总理办公室告诉他们对彼得雷乌斯是否在该国“没有信息”。

如果报告的中央情报局局长的秘密访问伊斯坦布尔是正确的,最明显的问题是“为什么”和“为什么现在”?上一次彼得雷乌斯秘密访问土耳其,最终在大约六个月前泄露给了新闻界,据报当时讨论叙利亚危机。根据由英国,德国和美国媒体的报告,在彼得雷乌斯秘密访问土耳其时,美国总统巴拉克·奥巴马批准了中央情报局驻扎在土耳其的人员为叙利亚反政府提供“非致命”武装。这也是众所周知,华盛顿认为在叙利亚危机中,土耳其与沙地阿拉伯,约旦和以色列一样,是美国的一个重要的盟国。中央情报局局长在不到六个月内的第二次秘密访问土耳其,是否预示着华盛顿强化参与叙利亚危机?





Turkish and American authorities have refused comment on persistent reports that the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency is currently on a secret visit to Turkey. News of the alleged trip was first reported on Monday by Turkish tabloid daily Akşam. The newspaper said David Petraeus, who heads the United States’ foremost civilian intelligence agency, had arrived earlier that day in Istanbul’s Atatürk International Airport, on his private plane. According to the article, the CIA chief decided to embark on the unannounced trip in order to discuss “counterterrorism and the situation in Syria” with senior Turkish officials. Several hours later, French news agency Agence France Presse reported that, according to “a US official”, the CIA Director was indeed in Turkey, holding secret “meetings on regional issues”.

However, the unnamed US source would not provide specific information about Petreaeus’ meeting arrangements while in Turkey, nor would (s)he divulge the names of the Turkish officials that were scheduled to meet with him. Another Turkish daily, Hürriyet, said the CIA Director would probably meet with his Turkish counterpart, MİT chief Hakan Fidan, as well as with Turkey’s Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan . But repeated efforts by the paper to confirm this were rebuffed by representatives of the US embassy in Ankara, as well as Turkish officials. The latter appeared to have coordinated their responses, with spokespersons from both Turkey’s Foreign Ministry and the Office of the Prime Minister telling Hürriyet that they “had no information” on whether Petraeus was in the country.

If the reports of the CIA Director’s secret visit to Istanbul are correct, the obvious questions are “why” and why now”? The last time Petraeus paid an unannounced visit to Turkey, which eventually leaked to the press, was roughly six months ago, reportedly do discuss the crisis in Syria. As intelNews as reported consistently, based on claims by British, German and American media, around the time of Petraeus’ secret visit to Turkey, US President Barack Obama has authorized CIA officers stationed in the country to provide “non-lethal support” to Syrian anti-government rebels. It is also known that, Washington considers Turkey as one of its most important intelligence allies in the ongoing Syrian crisis, along with Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Israel. Could the CIA Director’s second unannounced visit to Turkey in less than six months be heralding an intensification of Washington’s intelligence involvement in the Syrian crisis?
