Turkey has dismissed a range of proposals from Iraq on dealing with Kurdish rebels, saying they will take too long to work. The foreign ministry said more urgent action was needed than that offered by an Iraqi delegation, which is in Ankara to try to resolve the dispute.
The visit is an attempt to avert a threatened Turkish ground attack on Kurdistan Workers' Party bases in Iraq.
Turkey gave the Iraqis a list of PKK rebels and demanded their extradition.
The Iraqi delegation, including Defence Minister Abdul-Qader Mohammed Jassim and US officials from the embassy in Baghdad, held talks with Turkey's Foreign Minister Ali Babacan.
Afterwards, the Turkish foreign ministry praised the Iraqi team for its "sincere" and "well-intentioned" approach. But it said the Iraqi ideas would "take a long time to put into action".
The PKK - which is designated a terrorist organisation by Turkey, the US, and the EU - is thought to have about 3,000 rebels based in Iraq.

Dear AlphaF believe me there are more and more there in Turkey but please understand this timing and read between the lines when it is related to Iraq and especially the notrh part. Do review the speeches of Turkey prime minister and then you have a lot in your hands to hunt.
