As to Turkey’s deployment to Iraqi border, Iraqi PM Haider Abadi has said “We do not want to fight Turkey. God forbid, even if we engage in war with them, the Turks will pay a heavy price. Whenever a country fights a neighboring country, there will be no winner, both will end up losing,"

Iraqi PM Abadi has responded to President Erdoğan, who said Turkish troops won’t leave Bashiqa, on Twitter: We will liberate our land through the determination of our men and not by video calls”.

While Kurdistan Regional Government Leader Barzani has backed Ankara as to troops dispatched to Mosul, Iraqi President Abadi said Turkey has 24 hours left to solve the issue.
