Ethnic-based federation to jeopardize Iraq

"The federation proposal submitted by Kurdish groups will jeopardize seriously Iraq but we are keeping province-type federation warm." told IHA reporter Cubuk. The Turkmen member said Sunni and Shiite Arab members of the Governing Council were also oppose to this Kurdish initiative. While refering the recent joint rally in which Turkmens and Arabs were killed, "Kirkuk must be disarmed immediately. It is neither safe nor stable. Arms must be collected from everybody including police officers. Why do political parties have arms here? Only US soldiers should be allowed to carry arms here." proclaimed Cubuk. "I do not believe that US neglegence caused the recent violent incident in Kirkuk. 85 percent of police are Kurdish-nationality here. So, the police has taken side of the incident." underlined Cubuk. "I have striven to set up a commission to search and determine those who were responsibles of the incident." she added.
