Kissinger sees that Turkey’s concerns about PKK are just and legitimate. However, he believes, a military intervention in northern Iraq is not the ‘formula’ of prevention; that even will result in Turkey being trapped in Iraq and this does not suit for interests of not only the U.S. but also Turkey. I approached Henry Kissinger before he started his speech and I said, “I heard in the news just minutes ago; you told CNN-Türk that a military operation in northern Iraq by Turkey is wrong.” He replied, “I understand Turkey's concerns but I am a friend of Turkey and I expressed my opinion sincerely.”
