Iraq not on Turkey's Agenda

Turkish Interior Minister Cemil Cicek said Monday that the ball is in the court of the US and the Interim Governing Council with regard to the question of deploying Turkish troops in Iraq. Referring to the sending of troops, Cicek said, "For that to happen, the situation has to move on. And that is something that does not depend on us. That is why there is no question of our taking one step further."
