WASHINGTON, Oct 18, 2007 (AFP) — Iraqi government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh, in a rare appearance at the White House, Thursday urged Turkey not to carry out a possible military strike at Kurdish rebels in northern Iraq.
"It is a Turkish decision," he said, but Baghdad hopes Ankara will choose "not to use the military solution and refrain from crossing Iraqi borders."
