Well, that is not the case; what has happened after the latest military
action, there was a pile up of terrorist activity on our border one more time, these elements were activated due to the recent problems we have observed in the area....we must make sure there is strict strip next to our borders...so we will be able to stop this kind of infiltration...You will have to recognise this is not something Turkey wants to do or that it has planned to do. We need to protect our borders and our people...we will do that protection process in
anyway that we can...We have informed all our allies in the region. We have informed the Iraqi government...and if necessary we will have to protect our borders...Turkey faced a flood of people through our borders at another time and this time it's the terrorists. We have been hurt by this Gulf crisis sufficiently; we have paid close to 28 biilion dollars on our own...we are continually hurt by the embargo..it is about time our allies recognised our needs.";
