Maliki says signed no agreement with Turkey to track
down Kurdish PKK fighters in Iraqi Kurdistan
August 28, 2007
BAGHDAD,-- Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki
said his recent "successful" visit to Turkey did not
see any agreements allowing the Turkish army to
enter Kurdistan region (northern Iraq) to track down
the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK).
Maliki also denied reviving any agreements the
former regime of Saddam Hussein had concluded with
the Turkish side.
"Turkish and Iranian shelling of some villages in
Iraq's Kurdistan region was in violation of Iraq's
sovereignty," the Iraqi premier said during a press
conference he held in Baghdad on Sunday after
inaugurating the cabinet's press center.
"We hope if the brothers have information to
cooperate with us. We would never allow any excesses
on the part of some terrorist organizations that
seized the chance to undermine our relations with
those countries," he said. |
Iraqi Prime minister Jawad Nuri al-Maliki |
Maliki said that Iraq, through the foreign ministry,
would "ask the two countries to refrain from these
actions," adding development in building favorable
security conditions and rendering the political
process a success can never be accomplished away
from the Arab and international circumference.
