US not doing enough against Kurd separatists

He said, however, the U.S. military was not doing enough to wipe out the separatist gang based in the mountains of northern Iraq.

He said Turkey was not after the PKK moved away from northern Iraq, either into Turkey or to another neighboring country. "That’s not what we want," Gen. Basbug said, stressing that Turkey was after eradication of the terrorist gang.

He called on the U.S. army to take military action in the near future against the PKK.
