Türkiye and Iraq reiterate commitment to combatting all forms of terrorism, with Turkish President Erdogan saying PKK, Daesh and FETO terror groups pose threat to both countries
Terror groups such as PKK, Daesh and FETO pose threat to both countries, says Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
"Our expectation from our Iraqi brethren is that they will designate the PKK as a terror group and clear their lands of this bloodthirsty terrorist organisation," Erdogan said. "Türkiye, again, is the greatest defender of Iraq's political unity and territorial integrity," Erdogan said. "I believe that we will transform this project into the new Silk Road of our region," he said, adding that the project is also strategically important for the entire region.
