The US Consul to Adana, Eric F. Green, has said that the US would not look warmly on a Turkish over-the-border operation against PKK forces hiding in Northern Iraq. Answering questions from reporters while on a visit in Viransehir, Green noted that while the US didn't "look warmly" on a possible Turkish incursion into Northern Iraq in pursuit of the PKK, that US officials were currently "researching" the views of local citizens on the matter.
Said Green, "We support the idea of the Iraqi governmnet's finding a solution to the PKK presence in Northern Iraq. We are on the side of finding a peaceful agreement." Consul Green was reportedly on his first tour of the region.
