/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Representatives of US administration together with
representatives from Turkish government are secretly working out a
secret military operation aimed at suppressing the movement of Kurdish
separatists and capturing their leaders, Washington Post reports.
"Last week US Undersecretary for Policy at the Pentagon Eric
Edelman held a confidential briefing on this issue for a number
of congressmen. According to US legislation the presidential
administration must inform members of Congress about such initiatives.
Edelman told them that the US Special Forces will assist Turkish
servicemen to neutralize the leadership of the separatist Kurdistan
Workers' Party (PKK).
The Pentagon's representative assured congressmen that he is sure
in success, and in case of necessity it will be possible to hide the
realization of a special operation against Kurds and even to deny it,"
the newspaper reports.
Turkish authorities have repeatedly assured on their readiness to
carry out a cross-border operation into northern Iraq if the Iraqi
government and US armed forces don't take effective actions against
PKK fighters who are hiding in the north of the country.
At the same time official Ankara states that Turkey does not have
any claims on territories of other countries.
