Turkey agrees to border access for US troops resupply
BREAKINGThe Turkish Government has agreed to give passage to the US to resupply its forces through Turkey's south-east border with Iraq. The agreement was announced in a joint news conference with visiting US Secretary of State Colin Powell and Turkey's Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul. Speaking in Ankara, Mr Gul said providing supplies to US forces would not require the approval of parliament. This will help, freeing up airlift for other operations. Thanks, Murat.
