The Israeli and Syrian ambassadors have not been invited
to an upcoming fast-breaking dinner organized by the Justice and Development
Party (AKP) in Ankara, daily Radikal has reported.
Syrian and Israeli ambassadors are not currrently in Turkey as Turkey's relationships with the two countries were taken down to a lower level.
The ruling party has been boycotting Israel for the past few years and excluded Syria from the guest list this year due to tension between Damascus and Ankara over the uprising in the country and Syria’s recent downing of a Turkish plane.
All country's ambassadors except Israel and Syria were invited to the fast-breaking dinner at which Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is expected to give a speech.
The dinner will be held at the AKP's headquarters in Ankara and famous musicians will take the stage, the reports said.
