Bill Clinton Says US Government Should Protect
Kurds From External Attacks
April 16, 2007
The former US President Bill Clinton said that
the US administration must protect Kurds from any external attacks. He added
that
a possible Turkish military operation into Southern Kurdistan would bring "a
disaster" to the region, the London-based Arabic language daily Asharq Al-Awsat
reported today.
"America should deploy its troops in Iraq in Kurdistan and regions neighboring
Kurdistan, The troops to be deployed would prevent Turkey from entering the
region, thus helping to protect Iraqi Kurds from external forces. Although
Turkey has all along been an ally for us and
Israel, it should not be let to enter Iraqi
lands. Turkey's incursion into the region will bring disaster to the region,"
Clinton said.
