Rasmussen je pozvao Tursku na igra veću ulogu u borbi protiv terorizma, i uputi veći broj vojnika u sastav NATO-ovih Međunarodnih sigurnosnih snaga za podršku (ISAF) u Afganistanu.
Rasmussen urged Turkey to play a bigger role in the fight against terrorism, as well as to contribute more troops to the Alliance's International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Afghanistan.
