PanARMENIAN.Net - U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates has expressed opposition to a possible Turkish intervention in Northern Iraq, noting yesterday from Singapore, "We hope that we will not see a single sided military operation taking place within Iraq."



Gates, who reiterated that the U.S. administration sympathizes with Turkish frustration over PKK related violence, said that Washington believes the solution to the PKK problems in Turkey lies within Turkish borders, and not in Iraq, Hurriyet reports.
