Erdogan: "Trump suggested to name the so-called "Armenian genocide" a battle"
"We are already bored of the so-called "Armenian genocide" issue. On the sidelines of my visit to US I will also touch upon this issue. Even Donald Trump himself once said how to call it not genocide but fight? I responded that there was not a country in front of us, such issue is not a subject of discussion. I also stated that this was a forced migration issue and here some difficulties were experienced, as well," Turkish President stated.

Turkish president: NATO cannot answer us
"We ask NATO under Article 5 about who they support: terrorists or NATO member Turkey?" Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an told reporters at Esenboga Airport before leaving for Azerbaijan.
He also commented on recent negotiations between Bashar al-Assad's government and the Syrian Democratic Forces established by the PKK / YPG-PYD: "There is a lot of rumors going on right now. There will be no problem with Russia's positive attitude to the anti-terrorist operation in Kobani. According to our relationship with the United States on the issue of Manbij, the US had to vacate it in 90 days. Not we, but their owners Arabs are going to enter Manbij."
"We ask them in accordance with the 5th article of NATO: "Do they want to be with terrorists or NATO member Turkey?". Naturally, they do not answer the question. Turkey is the only Muslim member of NATO.
Turkish President spoke about a telephone conversation with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson. According to him, Boris Johnson asked how they can help.
He touched on the distortion of the anti-terrorist operation in foreign media: "They will falsify, and we will tell the truth. No matter how they deviate from the goal, we will tell the truth. They cannot make us hide the truth."

IRAQI KURDISTAN LEADER BARZANI TO STEP DOWN, HAND OVER PRESIDENTIAL POWERS
SULAIMANIYA, Iraq - Iraqi Kurdistan's veteran leader Masoud Barzani will not extend his presidential term beyond November 1, a Kurdish government official said on Saturday.
His decision came just weeks after a referendum on Kurdish independence backfired and triggered a crisis for Iraq's Kurds who had been enjoying a period of unprecedented autonomy.
Soraya S?enz de Santamar?a - Madrid's enforcer for Catalonia
In those respects, Mar?a Soraya S?enz de Santamar?a Ant?n, 46, mirrors to some extent Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, whom she has served as deputy prime minister since he took office in December 2011.
Before entering politics, she was a state lawyer, a member of an elite legal corps serving the state apparatus, and is more than qualified to use the letter of the law against the separatists.
Untainted by the corruption scandals which have gripped Mr Rajoy's centre-right Popular Party (PP), her credentials are impeccable in the eyes of the government.
But she will be regarded as an implacable foe by the Catalan nationalist politicians being sacked to make way for direct rule.

For more correct, more objective evaluation of the processes taking place in the country there is a need for transparency. Transparency destroys any doubt, and can prevent many of the negative aspirations. In both cases, taking of measures and active participation of citizens in the process is important. Our goal is to introduce transparency in all relationships in society, and help correct formation of the younger generation. One of the steps to be taken in this direction - to familiarize with the activities of educational institutions, the study of potential problems, their causes and ways of eliminating, and assistance in establishing transparency in these institutions. To improve the quality, improve the overall work, to achieve more successful reforms in the educational system, the continuation of a more efficient and promote public participation in these processes, we consider it expedient to conduct sociological research.

Daimler AG to re-enter Iran ’s market
Daimler AG to re-enter Iran ’s market
The German giant car manufacture Daimler AG plans to reenter the Iranian auto market, Silke Mockert, a spokesperson with the company told Trend August 26.
“We will re-enter the market, considering the persistent sanctions regime and further export control regulations, after the implementation of the nuclear agreement,” Mockert said.
“Against this background, we currently conduct individual transactions,” she added.
The CEO of Iran Khodro Industrial Group (IKCO) Hashem Yekeh Zareh earlier said that the German company will purchase 30 percent of Iranian Diesel Engine Manufacturing's (IDEM) shares to produce autos in the city of Tabriz, adding Mercedes-Benz would sign a 10-year agreement to produce truck and autobus in Iran.
He said that German Daimler AG was Iran 's major partner before sanctions, but left the country, however, this company wants to re-open its office in Tehran during next months.
Iran Khodro may sign a deal with German Daimler AG to produce commercial vehicles and luxury cars as soon as three to four months from now, Yekeh Zareh added.
Meanwhile Mockert refused to make comments on the issue saying as a matter of principle, the company does not comment on contract components or contractual relations.
Iran is one of the biggest countries in the region in term of producing cars.
The 2014 production statistics by the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA) show Iran ’s auto production increased by 46.7 percent in the 12-month period. The figures indicate the Iranian automakers produced 1,090,846 cars and commercial vehicles last year.
Iran's Minister of Industry, Mines and Trade Mohammad Reza Nematzadeh said on July 23 that Iran was looking to move away from state ownership in many sectors, creating joint ventures for auto parts manufacturers with the aim to produce three million vehicles by 2025, of which a third would be exported.

Int’l low-enriched uranium bank to be established in Kazakhstan
Int’l low-enriched uranium bank to be established in Kazakhstan
On August 27, 2015, the government of Kazakhstan will sign an agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on establishing an international low-enriched uranium (LEU) bank in the country in 2017, said the message of the Kazakh Embassy in Azerbaijan.
It will be located at the Ulba Metallurgical Plant (UMP) in Ust-Kamenogorsk (Oskemen), a city in north-eastern Kazakhstan.
The ceremony will take place in Astana and will be attended by delegates from countries that have supported the project, including the five permanent members of UN Security Council (China, France, Russia, UK, US), EU, Norway, Kuwait, the UAE.
IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano will sign the agreement on behalf of the organisation, while Minister of Foreign Affairs of Kazakhstan Erlan Idrissov will sign on behalf of the host country.
“The signing of this agreement is a significant step that will facilitate peaceful nuclear cooperation, an objective which Kazakhstan has worked tirelessly towards,” Erlan Idrissov, foreign minister of Kazakhstan, said. “The LEU fuel bank is an important vehicle that will help create a safer world. I am grateful to the IAEA and to our funding partners for this opportunity.”
The fuel bank will provide countries with reliable access to fuel for their nuclear energy plants.
Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, Kazakhstan was left with the world’s fourth largest nuclear arsenal, which it renounced and dismantled over the first decades of its independence. The country has since consistently campaigned for an end to nuclear testing and supports a number of non-proliferation and disarmament initiatives.
