    Alsumaria News - International

    Turkish Defense Minister Yasar Guler said that the operations carried out by his country's forces in northern Iraq and Syria "inflicted" heavy losses on the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) on a daily basis.

    In an interview with Al Jazeera Net, Guler spoke about signing a memorandum of understanding with[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]It is considered a turning point in their relations, stressing Ankara's quest to make cooperation in "fighting terrorism" permanent between the two countries "to accelerate the dismantling of the party and ensure stability and security in the region."



    Guler described his country's bilateral and military relations with[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/47570/%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AE%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%AC/ar/]Gulf countries[/url]Strong and continuous at a high level. He explained that their cooperation is being strengthened through joint training, and the exchange of personnel between the Turkish Armed Forces and the[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/47570/%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AE%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%AC/ar/]Gulf countries[/url]The following is the text of the interview: * Is there progress in the issue of establishing a security corridor on the border with


    [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]And Syria?

    Our Turkish Armed Forces continue their struggle against all kinds of threats and dangers, including organizations[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/43518/%D8%AD%D8%B2%D8%A8 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D9%83%D8%B1%D8%AF%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%8A/ar/]Kurdistan workers' party[/url], and forces[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Democracy, the Islamic State, and the "terrorist" Fethullah Gulen, by increasing pressure and pace.

    Through the operations we carried out in the north[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]And[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]We have destroyed the "terror corridor" that was intended to be established on our borders, and ensured its security from the front, and I emphasize this important success.

    With our continuous and effective operations, the "terrorist organization" is suffering heavy losses on a daily basis. Its membership rate has significantly decreased from within and from Europe, its revenues have decreased, and the credibility of its alleged leaders has diminished. This has been greatly reflected in the decisions and talks of the so-called Executive Council of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (Kurdistan Communities Union).

    Once again, terrorism that burns forests, uses local people as human shields, plants explosives in residential areas and places of worship, and tries to launch a black propaganda campaign to make the international community believe that these actions are carried out by the Turkish Armed Forces - and this is due to their inability - cannot escape the inevitable end that awaits it.

    So far, we have successfully expanded the field control, and we are neutralizing the ability of the "terrorist organization" to carry out any operations. We are fully determined to end the "terrorism scourge" that has been hindering our country for 40 years, and to secure the North[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Completely from terrorists.

    *Is the Iraqi government cooperating with you on this issue?
    As you know, the "terrorist Kurdistan Workers' Party" negatively affects the stability and security of both countries, and has taken advantage of the long-standing power vacuum in northern[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Its presence and the attacks it launches from its bases in the region have always been the main problem in bilateral relations between Baghdad and Ankara.

    However, positive reciprocal steps have been taken recently with[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]During our President's visit,[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/106029/%D8%B1%D8%AC%D8%A8 %D8%B7%D9%8A%D8%A8 %D8%A3%D8%B1%D8%AF%D9%88%D8%BA%D8%A7%D9%86/ar/]Recep Tayyip Erdogan[/url]To Baghdad and Erbil on April 22, 2024, a "Memorandum of Understanding on a Comprehensive Strategic Framework" was signed, and we see this as a turning point in relations between the two countries.

    We are satisfied with the positive steps taken recently with the Iraqi central government and its regional administration, and we seek to make cooperation in "fighting terrorism" permanent between our two countries. The joint fight against the "terrorist organization" accelerates its disintegration, and prepares the ground for lasting stability and security.

    Cooperation, exchange of experiences, and mutual support enhance the joint capabilities necessary to cleanse the region of "terrorists", and the ability of local elements to "fight terrorism."

    Organization[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/43518/%D8%AD%D8%B2%D8%A8 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D9%83%D8%B1%D8%AF%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%8A/ar/]Kurdistan workers' party[/url]"Terrorists" evacuated about 800 villages in the north[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], and drove the villagers out of their homes. Therefore, cooperation is necessary to ensure the safety and security of the villagers who were displaced by this organization in the area.

    As a result of all this, the State of[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]The PKK is a problem for her, not just for[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]We welcome Baghdad’s decision to declare it a “banned organization,” and look forward to declaring it a “terrorist organization” as soon as possible.

    *You mentioned earlier that there might be a major cross-border military operation into[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]In the summer, is there a timetable for this?
    Our Turkish Armed Forces continue their struggle within the framework of the "New Security Concept in the Fight against Terrorism" which includes eliminating threats at their source before they reach our borders. We have dealt heavy blows to the "terrorist organization" through continuous and comprehensive operations, instead of limited and temporary military operations in the past, and have greatly reduced their ability to move.

    There is no specific timetable for this, but our strategy is clear and our preparations are made accordingly. Our Turkish Armed Forces are ready at any time and carry out operations when needed. Wherever there are "terrorists", they are targeted at the right time and place and what is necessary is done.

    *Preliminary agreements have been signed to establish the development corridor between[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Qatar and the Emirates and[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]What's the latest on this?
    Of course, meetings with[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]It is not just about counter-terrorism and border security, it is a comprehensive effort that includes security and trade aspects.

    The importance of the development road project is beginning to become clear. We see that the project, which extends from the Arabian Gulf through[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]To Ovakoy and then to Thrace and Europe, a great opportunity for the region and[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]And[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], and we believe that it will contribute to the development of prosperity in the region.

    Our goal is to confront threats to our country from outside the borders by creating a safe zone, and to contribute to the development of the economy and prosperity in the region through transportation and energy projects, because the biggest enemy of its security, stability and prosperity is the presence of terrorist organizations.

    By cleansing the region from terrorism, we believe that we can develop the current cooperation with[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]In the areas of security, defense industries, trade and investment, health, education and agriculture, we believe that we can eventually achieve the necessary security environment for the region.

    *What kind of security corridor do you want to establish in Syria? Does it mean entering 30 and 40 kilometers deep and intervening in regime and opposition areas? And what will happen in this case?
    [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]It is the country that bore the greatest material, moral and social burden of the humanitarian crisis resulting from the conflict in[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]First ,

    the Islamic State tried, and then the organizations[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/43518/%D8%AD%D8%B2%D8%A8 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D9%83%D8%B1%D8%AF%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%8A/ar/]Kurdistan workers' party[/url], And[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/977967522/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%AA%D8%AD%D8%A7%D8%AF %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AF%D9%8A%D9%85%D9%82%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%B7%D9%8A/ar/]Democratic Union[/url](People's Protection Units) and the SDG organization, taking advantage of the power vacuum in[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]To establish a "terrorist state" there.

    Between 2013 and 2017, more than 600 innocent civilians were killed and more than 1,000 others were injured in attacks carried out from the north.[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]On our country. As I faced[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Massive migration wave.

    As a result, and within the framework of our rights derived from international law, we prevented the creation of a “terror corridor” on our borders through the “Euphrates Shield”, “Olive Branch”, “Peace Spring” and “Spring Shield” operations we carried out against terrorist organizations in[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]We have secured our borders from the front.

    We have also created a safe and stable living area for Syrians living in the region or who have migrated from it. Our humanitarian activities and infrastructure support to normalize life continue in[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], and we want to see it stable, democratic and politically unified as our neighbor.

    There is no different interpretation of the concept of the security corridor in[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Or Syria; it aims to prevent the "bloody hand of terrorist organizations" from reaching our people and lands from a distance without posing a threat. We are fully determined to establish it along our borders with Baghdad and Damascus. The

    PKK elements will be,[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/977967522/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%AA%D8%AD%D8%A7%D8%AF %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AF%D9%8A%D9%85%D9%82%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%B7%D9%8A/ar/]Democratic Union[/url]And the organization of the state in[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]And[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]legitimate targets for us as they were in the past. Our determined and determined struggle will not stop until the “terrorists with blood-stained hands” - regardless of who stands behind them and supports them - are no longer able to threaten our country and our region.

    *Was there a meeting with the Syrian regime on this issue?
    Meetings with the Syrian regime are held only in Astana with the participation of Iran and[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]And[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]And Russia. Our goal is to reach a political solution in Damascus on the basis of UN Security Council Resolution No. (2254). President Erdogan has assigned the Foreign Minister[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/2986843539/%D9%87%D8%A7%D9%83%D8%A7%D9%86 %D9%81%D9%8A%D8%AF%D8%A7%D9%86/ar/]Hakan Fidan[/url]In this regard, our hope is to start a new process with our neighbor on a rational basis.

    The Security Council voted on the resolution on December 18, 2015, which stipulates the start of peace talks with[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]In January 2016, while stressing that the Syrian people should decide the country's future, he called for the formation of a transitional government and UN-sponsored elections, demanding an immediate end to any attacks against civilians.

    *The United States has bases in[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]And[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Was there a meeting about the rules you want?[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]In its establishment in them? And what is Washington's position on that?
    The United States' cooperation with[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/43518/%D8%AD%D8%B2%D8%A8 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D9%83%D8%B1%D8%AF%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%8A/ar/]Kurdistan workers' party[/url]The YPG is not in line with the spirit of the coalition and endangers the territorial integrity of Iraq and Syria. If the goal is to combat ISIS, cooperation should be with allies, not with terrorists, and we have always expressed our readiness for this.

    It is worth noting that the brave Turkish Armed Forces were the most effective in combating ISIS in Operation Euphrates Shield, arresting thousands of terrorists and bringing this organization to a state of collapse. We expect our allies, especially Washington, to change their positions on issues that directly affect our national security under the guise of combating this organization.

    *Are you considering a cross-border military operation to[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]In the near future?
    Carrying out military operations or campaigns within the framework of international law and our right to legitimate defense for the security of our country and our borders is a natural right for[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]No one expects us to remain spectators to what is happening, and our activities in the region will continue as long as the “terrorist threat” exists, and our only target is the “terrorists.”

    It is worth noting that all our operations in[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]And[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Implemented in accordance with the following:
    - Our rights to legitimate defense under Article (51) of the United Nations Charter.
    - Respecting the rights of sovereignty and territorial integrity of our neighbors.
    - Taking all necessary measures to ensure that innocent civilians, friendly elements, historical, cultural and environmental properties are not harmed.

    *What are the features of military and defense cooperation with[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/47570/%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AE%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%AC/ar/]Gulf countries[/url], and the high-level visits that took place to the region, including your visit?
    We are in[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]We consider stability, security and prosperity[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/47570/%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AE%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%AC/ar/]Gulf countries[/url]-with whom we have historical ties and deep friendship- is directly linked to the stability, security and well-being of our country. We strive to enhance regional cooperation, especially since our bilateral and military relations with[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/47570/%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AE%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%AC/ar/]Gulf countries[/url]Strong and continuous at a high level.

    In this context, our cooperation is strengthened through joint training, personnel exchange between the Turkish Armed Forces and the[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/47570/%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AE%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%AC/ar/]Gulf countries[/url]For example, there was a large and high-level participation from these countries in the “Efes 2024” exercise that was held in[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Last May.

    We are interested in increasing our cooperation in the field of defense industries with[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/47570/%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AE%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%AC/ar/]Gulf countries[/url]Our products in this field have proven their effectiveness in the operational areas. They are manufactured according to NATO standards and are widely used and attract the interest of the countries in the region.

    Moreover, since 2017, elements of the Turkish Armed Forces have been stationed in Qatar to support the development of the defense capabilities of the Qatari Armed Forces and contribute to regional and global peace through joint operations and exercises. A

    roadmap for bilateral military and defense cooperation has also been established with the UAE. We are working to establish our partnership with the countries in the region through mutual visits and bilateral agreements that have been signed.

    Among these are the visits of President Erdoğan to the region, and the Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/283441320/%D9%85%D8%B4%D8%B9%D9%84 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D8%AD%D9%85%D8%AF %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AC%D8%A7%D8%A8%D8%B1 %D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B5%D8%A8%D8%A7%D8%AD/ar/]Mishaal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah[/url]To our country, the Chief of the Qatari General Staff and the commanders of the Qatari forces, the Chief of the UAE General Staff, the Saudi Minister of Defense and his deputies.
