Bulgaria's Ambassador in Ankara Krasimir Tulechki was summoned to Turkey's Foreign Ministry Saturday.
The meeting was regarding the decision taken by Bulgaria's National Assembly to recognize the ''mass extermination'' of Armenians as opposed to the initial version of the document that qualified it as ''genocide''.
Meanwhile, the Turkish Foreign Ministry has issued a statement regarding the events of the past several days. The adoption of the document was blamed upon ''the ultra-nationalist, xenophobic, racist ATAKA party''.
''Our neighbor Bulgaria's Parliament has unfortunately been taken hostage by the extremist elements within itself, by ignoring the humanitarian and concrete initiatives that Turkey has taken in this historical issue,'' the statement said.
Furthermore, a position was expressed that this turn of events would negatively affect the relations between the two countries.
Ambassador Tulechki in his turn stated that he will take every effort to convince Bulgaria's southern neighbor that the declaration is in no way aimed against it.
He noted that he will be working for restoring the good state of bilateral relations in all fields of interest.
