Some fundamental mistakes are immediately apparent in halil's article and so the whole piece is disputable as a source of information.

Show goodwill and modify it accordingly halil ..... before these visitors see how childish you are in whom you address as President and whom as leader.

I know Ban Ki-moon does not share your views on this matter .......
