Turkish reaction to OKC bombing

edit

Per Oklahoma City bombing#Federal and state government aid, Bill Clinton was meeting with Turkish PM Tansu Çiller when he was notified of the bombing. Did Çiller or her government offer any official reactions? I'd like to put a Turkish reaction into the "International reaction" section (we mention international reactions from Iran and the PLO as well as NATO members like Turkey), and I'd expect a reaction since she was in the US at the moment, but I can't find anything — when I run a search for <"Tansu Çiller" "oklahoma city">, most of the results (examples 1 and 2) merely mention the fact that she was in the US at the time, and the exceptions are outright false positives. It's not a matter of diacritics, since most of the results, including both of the examples I gave, use "Ciller" rather than "Çiller". Searches for <turkey "oklahoma city" bombing> return nothing at all relevant, and if I remove <bombing>, I get results related to wild turkeys. I've gotten no useful results despite checking a range of databases: Gale War and Terrorism Collection, Ebsco Academic Search Ultimate, Ebsco International Security & Counter Terrorism Reference Center, Wiley Online Library, Gale US History Collection, Project Muse, JSTOR, and a 24-database history bundle from ProQuest.
