“The fact that we now are stepping up our cooperation on fighting those organizations, like PKK, is important both for Türkiye but also for the rest of Europe”, said NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg in an interview with NPR, Ednews reports.
“Türkiye is a very important ally. They are extremely important in our fight against ISIS/Daesh in Iraq and Syria, the only NATO ally bordering Iraq and Syria”, he said.
The Secretary General emphasized that PKK is a terrorist organization in Türkiye, but they are also responsible for organized crime in Sweden and other countries in Europe: “So, the fact that we now are stepping up our cooperation on fighting those organizations, like PKK, is important both for Türkiye but also for the rest of Europe,” he added.
