Chief of the Turkish General Staff Ilker Basbug arrives for a security meeting in Ankara October 9, 2008. A senior Iraqi Kurdish official warned Turkey on Thursday against stationing troops inside Iraq and said such a move would not stop cross-border raids by Kurdish guerrillas. Turkey's parliament on Wednesday overwhelmingly approved a government request to give the military the green light to carry out operations against PKK bases in northern Iraq for another year, days after a cross-border attack killed 17 soldiers.
