US Embassy in Ankara gives visa again

ankara - The US embassy in Turkey again provides visa without restrictions. The diplomatic post has announced that Thursday. The provision of visas to non-immigrants was suspended in October after a Turkish employee of the American consulate in Istanbul was arrested.

The US then decided to review the safety of its staff and not issue travel documents for so long. The step allowed the tensions between the countries to increase. Turkey also suspended the issue of visa in Washington in response.

In November, restrictions were already relaxed. According to the embassy in Ankara, security in Turkey is currently being improved to such an extent that all restrictions can be withdrawn. The Turkish government has ensured that there are no investigations against other employees and guarantees given for the treatment of arrested personnel.
