    Alsumaria News - Security
    A Turkish diplomatic source revealed today, Wednesday, that senior officials from Turkey and Iraq will hold high-level talks in Ankara tomorrow, Thursday, to enhance cooperation on security issues.

    The two countries have been at odds in recent years over Ankara's cross-border military operations against outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) militants based in a mountainous region of northern Iraq.
     
    Iraq says the operations constitute a violation of its sovereignty, but Turkey says they are "necessary to protect itself."


     
    Relations have improved since last year when the two sides agreed to hold high-level talks on security issues, and after Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan visited Baghdad in April where he said relations had entered a new phase.
     
    The two countries have so far held three rounds of meetings under the dialogue mechanism, and Baghdad decided to classify the PKK as a "banned organization in Iraq" during the last talks held last March, a move welcomed by Ankara.
     
    The Turkish source, whose name was not revealed by Reuters, said that "tomorrow's meeting, Thursday, will represent the first meeting of the joint planning group," which was decided to be formed during Erdogan's visit and is headed by the foreign ministers.
     
    The source added that the talks also aim to put the two countries' cooperation in an institutional and sustainable framework, noting that the two delegations will discuss the implementation of 27 agreements signed during Erdogan's visit, and will evaluate more joint initiatives.
     
    On Monday, Turkish Defense Minister Yasar Guler told Reuters that recent steps taken by Turkey and Iraq in the fight against terrorism represented a "turning point," adding that "technical work on establishing a joint operations center for the region is ongoing."
     
    Guler also said that "Turkish cross-border operations in northern Iraq will continue until the name of terrorism is erased from this region," adding that "Ankara expects Baghdad to classify the Kurdistan Workers' Party as a terrorist organization as soon as possible."
     
    The Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), which has been waging an insurgency against the Turkish state since 1984, is designated a terrorist organization by Turkey, the United States and the European Union, and more than 40,000 people have been killed in the conflict.
