Before they begin the battle to expel Daash of the city of Mosul, suggests the dispute over the presence of Turkish troops in the region to start a conflict to influence the future of Almedinh.hma trend began to grow after the defeat of Iraqi forces elements Daash of the city of Ramadi end of last month and pledged to Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi restoration of Mosul during the year current.
It remains the city's future is unclear where Turkey is a major competitor for influence in Mosul along with the Iraqi Kurds and the Baghdad government and perhaps even the popular crowd.
supports Turkey - a member of NATO and the Sunni force of historical relations in Nineveh province - Kurdish Peshmerga forces, which sees its participation necessary In the battle of the restoration of Mosul, and trained Sunni militias that are expected to also help restore them.
Analysts predict that the goal of Turkey, with the help of these allies, is to expand its influence in the Nineveh at a time when Iraq is divided it along sectarian lines, and you want to counter Iran's influence in Iraq.
says Turkish researcher Sinan Oolgan "This is mainly the outcome of high tensions with Iran."
Iraqi forces are absent from Nineveh since its collapse in 2014 to the advancement of Daash, and Baghdad is keen to impose itself there. At the same time Turkey has close relations in the field of energy and trade with the Kurdistan region and that, despite its opposition to the militants of the Kurdish Workers' Party rebel to Ankara, the Peshmerga supports as part of its interest in maintaining the stability of northern Iraq.
Bets escalate, The forces which previously participated in the restoration of areas of operations Daash have a say in how to manage it later These are accounts that precede expected to restore Mosul battle.
says political analyst and government adviser Carpets horses that "Turkey sees Mosul, northern Iraq sphere of influence, a buffer zone, the area must have a military presence. It feels must The controls on the border between Turkey and Iraq and Syria, or at least to know what's going on.
"began sparring diplomat last month after Turkey sent - as requested by Abadi, as you say - 150 fighters to the military base Ba'shiqah near Mosul to protect the Turkish troops that are training militants national crowd of the year in order to fight Daash.
After that Baghdad has complained to the Security Council, Turkey has withdrawn some troops to Kurdistan and said it will continue to withdraw from Nineveh. But the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan rejected a full withdrawal, he said, the Iraqi foreign minister said his country would respond militarily if it is forced to do so. While reducing Finance Minister Hoshyar Zebari later down the dispute, saying he on his way to the solution.
US President Barack Obama spoke by telephone with al-Abadi, saying that Turkey withdraw any military forces from Iraq were not authorized by the Baghdad government. Ankara has not commented on it, but with Abadi pledged to restore Mosul in 2016, will increase competition for control of the city in the future.
He says horses "Turks look to the Americans and the Iranians, who have a presence in Iraq, and they say we must have the presence, too." Abadi took a strong stand against the deployment of troops, rejecting Turkey's claims that Baghdad had agreed upon and accused Ankara as acting in bad faith.
Abadi and wrestle with the image of weakness and he has to deal with its partners in the fractious coalition (state law). It is likely to increase his popularity with the victory that has been achieved in Ramadi, but the issue of Turkish troops could be undermined.
He says horses "can not be slaves to ignore its partners and public opinion otherwise it may lose his coalition, and could face a vote of no confidence, but to Aakhosr anything if taken a tough stance towards Turkey ".
He says Oolgan that this hard-line stance may reflect opposition to the promotion of Turkish relations with Saudi Arabia, but he did not expect any direct confrontation, where he says" It's more than it is a political position something else, but it is natural that poisoned by sectarian tensions mounting, This is what makes management difficult.
"Relations are strained between Baghdad and Ankara for years, did not sweep Daash takeovers of northern and western Iraq. Iraq blames Turkey of allowing foreign fighters to join the insurgents through Syria, he says that the Turkish Consul in Nineveh has Bdaash link a charge denied by Ankara.
As the move to Turkey in 2014 to allow the Kurdistan send oil exports through a pipeline to the Turkish port has angered Baghdad. After the escalation of PKK attacks Turkey resumed in the July bombing of the rules of the militants in northern Iraq.
He says Oolgan "with the arrival of the fighting against the PKK to its peak, the presence of Turkish troops in northern Iraq, is considered a deterrent to more PKK attacks", and is expected Oolgan the continued presence of Turkish troops.
During the last week, Erdogan has denied that there will be no Turkish ambitions in Iraqi territory, but with this Some believe that the Turkish troops would not leave.
For his part, accused Adel Murad, a senior official in the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan of Iraq, Turkey maneuvering to occupy part of the connector at the start of the fighting there , where he says "Turks dream of Mosul and see it as a Turkish province was deducted after the First World War. This is unacceptable, they are not the guardians of Mosul."[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
