Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said Tuesday the PKK terror group poses a threat to Iraq's stability, development and peace.
Talking to reporters on the plane after his key one-day visit to Iraq, he offered Türkiye's help for solving Iraq's worsening water crisis.
Erdoğan added that he believed Iraq saw the need to eliminate the bloody-minded PKK terror group and that it had the will to do so.
Speaking to reporters on his flight back from a visit to Iraq, Erdoğan said Türkiye's battle with terrorism would continue in line with international law.
"Eliminating this threat is also to the benefit of Iraq. I believe they see this reality and they will now put forth a will for this issue to be removed," the Turkish leader underlined while concluding his comments.
The bloody-minded PKK, which has waged a decades-old armed campaign against the Turkish state, is designated a terrorist group by Türkiye, the United States and the European Union.
