State Dept.: No ‘Disrespect’ to Victims of Terror Attacks in Turkey

‘It is in no way, should be interpreted as showing any disrespect’

TONER: "Partly, that is a decision made by the White House, or by the senior leadership of the country. In no way way should be interpreted as showing any disrespect. You raised the case of Turkey, which has suffered greatly from ISIL or Deash terrorism. And as you have said, we expressed our condolences, we have offered our assistance to Turkish authorities."
