“We have taken the necessary measures against attacks on the Bashik camp. The presence of Turkish military will remain there. We have reorganized and have sent reinforcements to protect the camp. Our military won’t participate in any combat, they are there only to train the local forces. The legitimacy of their presence there is not under discussion,” Davutoglu said in an interview with A Haber television station.
On Saturday, the Iraqi Foreign Ministry said it had officially filed a complaint with the UN Security Council, calling on the United Nations to ensure an immediate withdrawal of the Turkish forces from its country's territory.
