First Minister of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

An Israeli official told the newspaper Haaretz talks are "blocked" and that "differences are always pleasant". Nevertheless, he said that it is still early to declare the dead talks and more awaits further discussion very soon. A spokesman for the Turkish Foreign Ministry said Friday that negotiations will resume soon.

For telephone conversations between the parties Thursday, it is evident as Prime Minister of Turkey, Tayyip Erdogan has rejected two requests Israeli key. Erdogan has refused to absolve the Israeli soldiers of malice by acknowledging that they have acted in self-defence.

Turkish Daily News reported Saturday that the Turkey and Israel representatives gathered in Geneva to discuss an Israeli request for a formal agreement with the Turkey and the families of killed Turkish citizens to prevent future combinations against the soldiers Israel or Israel Mavi Marmara Sea.

Israel hope, thanks to such an agreement, to lift the threat posed by an international investigation into the incident.

According to published reports, Israel had offered $ 100,000 each Turkish families who lost a member of the family to the resumption of Mavi Marmara Sea. Minister Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, however, called these numbers "purely speculative."

A source Turkish higher told Haaretz newspaper that disagreement now focuses on the wording of the Israeli apologize and not the question of compensation.

The Turkish source stated that Israel wanted to Ankara to accept a project who said it is "sorry" for the murder of Turkish citizens but that Mr. Erdogan had rejected this proposal.

The current project that proposes Israel States that although he apologizes for the murder of Turkish citizens, it accepts no responsibility for their deaths that Israeli soldiers had acted in self-defence. Erdogan has not yet approved this version and it will be the last word.

Zaman, a Turkish daily newspaper that supports part of Erdogan, Saturday referred to official sources, saying that the Geneva talks have been disrupted "because of the position of the Israeli army, which is similar to [Avigdor] Lieberman." These sources also said that Minister of Defense Ehud Barak opposed Israeli, excuses though great strategic importance it attaches to relations between Israel and the Turkey.

It is also reportedly interested in bringing the issue to a close, and Davutoglu is scheduled to visit New York next week where he will meet with the US Vice President Joe Biden. Both should discuss ways of rehabilitating Israel-Turkey for strong criticism of Turkey Congressional relations.

Meanwhile, Deputy Prime Minister Cemil Cicek the Turkey said it will take time for relationships between the Turkey and Israel repair and it can happen that the elections of June 2011 in Turkey approach - assuming that Israel accepts the conditions of the Turkey. This suggests that the party in power, Prime Minister Erdogan, AKP members think their chances of winning the next election will depend on United States and Israel relations.
