"Erdogan je napravio razuman diplomatski potez dovođenjem zauzimanjem 'višeg nivoa' u odnosima s javnošću po nizu pitanja,” izjavio je Kiesling. “… nažalost, George Papandreou jednostavno ne može sebi priuštiti da posveti dovoljno energije tom konkretnom setu pitanja.”
"Erdogan made a sensible diplomatic move to take the public relations ‘high ground’ on a series of issues,” said Kiesling. “… unfortunately, George Papandreou simply cannot afford to devote enough energy to this specific set of issues.”
