Erdoğan still Covets the North of Iraq; Ghaemmaghami tells ILNA
Turkey President and his administration are looking to re-breach in the region, especially in Iraq. We should wait for Ankara’s frequentation with West.
“After Douma scenario and alleged utilization of chemical armaments in east Ghouta, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan did all his best to induce United States of America and some European countries that Bashar al-Assad and Syrian administration is responsible for this situation. This went on to such an extent that Turkey government officially criticized western countries for not making strong prosecution against Damascus” Ali Ghaemmaghami, Turkey Analyst explained to ILNA about the possibility of region partition.
“After France, Britain and U.S. recent missile attack against Syria, we witnessed that Turkey President, prime minster and other political officials evaluated it positively but claimed that these sorts of actions are not enough. In other words, Ankara expected more extended attack” he added.
The Felicity Party, the Nationalist Movement Party, the Patriotic Party and other Turkey movements condemned this attack and even some domestic Turkey affairs analysts declared that the situation would escalate the ongoing tension. Erdoğan repeatedly announced indirectly that Washington and Ankara can cooperate on the matter of Iraq and Syria. Even Turkey defense minister said officially that since Ankara is a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), it’s possible to have a military coalition against Damascus and even Baghdad.
