Tuesday, 22 October 2013 12:56 Shafaq News / The Head of the Turkish Foreign Relations Committee announced on Tuesday, his country's invitation for Iraqi Prime Minister, Nuri al-Maliki to visit Ankara. The relationship between Turkey and Iraq witnessed tension in the past because of the oil file in Kurdistan Region and the subject of deporting the Iraqi Vice President, Tareq al-Hashemi. In light of this tension, Baghdad prevented last November Tapau Turkish Company from participating in a tender for oil exploration, as Baghdad authorities refused last December to allow a plane carrying Turkish Minister of Transportation, Taner Yildiz to land at Erbil airport. The head of the Foreign Relations Committee, Humam Hamoudi hold in a joint press conference in the parliament building with his Turkish counterpart, Vulcan Boscar who is visiting Baghdad, attended by “Shafaq News”. “This visit came at the invitation of me and in response to the visit of the Parliament Speaker, Osama al-Nujaifi to Ankara,” Hamoudi said. Nujaifi visited Ankara last September, in which he discussed the Middle East subject in general and Syria and the relations between Turkey and Iraq in particular. Hamoudi added that the Turkish -Iraqi relations must go back to an earlier era and not to use it to” counter - terrorism “. Of his part Boscar said “the next term will witness the Turkish parliament speaker’s visit to Baghdad." http://www.shafaaq.com/en/politics/7650-breaking-newsturkey-invites-maliki-to-visit-ankara.html |

To let terrorists pass through from i-rack to Syria, and then in return Turkey will give them something, maybe give them weapons and other stuff. I find no other reasons. |

Maybe because of Kurdistan National Conference. Our enemies will do everything to prevent that. Don’t underestimate that. |

But Milky can't do anything, so it must be irrelevant, because Milky knows that he can't destroy the upcoming conference by buying KDP, PUK or any other parties. However, it could have to do with the recent threat by PKK. |

Idk, talk to Iranian masters, or impose laws (but they have no effects) , let terrorists invade WK through Anbar. Maybe even draw attention to a new confrontation in SK, so SK politicians forget about WK situation. |

Turkey, i-rack prepare for mutual visits to mend ties ANKARA - Hürriyet Daily News Ankara and Baghdad have accelerated a recent move toward rapprochement with mutual high-level visits as the prime ministers of two countries are planning to exchange visits in the upcoming months. i-racki Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki is expected to visit Turkey in December, following the visits of Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu on Nov. 13-14 and Parliamentary Speaker Cemil Çiçek on Nov. 22-23 to i-rack. Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Kerdoğan said Oct. 27 that he would go to Baghdad after al-Maliki’s visit to Turkey. The chairman of the Turkish Parliament’s Foreign Relations Committee, Volkan Bozkır, recently brought an invitation to Ankara from Kerdoğan to al-Maliki. i-racki Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari conducted talks in Ankara last week after a long period of strain between the two capitals. “We agreed to take new steps in order to improve bilateral relations and to open new horizons,” Zebari said Oct. 25 at a joint press with his Turkish counterpart. “We have turned the old page and opened a new chapter in our relations,” Zebari said. The i-racki minister said a new mechanism would be established between the two countries for political consultations and direct communication. “Our official channels and diplomacy channels are open,” he said. Tensions between the two countries have soured considerably in recent years due to oil agreements signed by Turkey with the Kurdish Regional Government (KRG) of KRG, without the consent of the central i-racki government. Ties were further strained after Turkey gave refuge to fugitive i-racki Vice President Tareq al-Hashemi. Al-Maliki is likely to run for the prime minister’s job for a third term after upcoming elections. October/29/2013 Edited by Zagros, Oct 29 13, 10:45.
