US military delegation will visit Turkey this week

He said Jones’ talks will focus on Iraq, but will also include other military, economic and political issues.
"The idea of the Americans is to place a sector" of Iraq under Turkish control, Ozkok said, according to Anatolia.
"There are several sectors in Iraq, some of which we are thinking about and some of which they are thinking about, but nothing has been decided," he said.

He said the number of Turkish troops who might be deployed has not been decided, but the Turkish government has talked about a figure of around 10,000. The general also declined to say when any deployment might take place.
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Friday he backed the sending of troops to neighbouring Iraq to help the US-led coalition restore security in the increasingly unstable country.
