The Arab League's general trusteeship asked the Turkish government to remove its military troops immediately from North Iraq and put an end to these negative actions affecting the historical relations between Turkey and the Arab states, that threaten the regional security and stability of the region.

Meanwhile the secretary general of Arabic affairs and in charge of the Iraq file ambassador Ahmed Ben Hali said that the league's general trusteeship is anxiously following up the continuous penetration of Turkish troops in Iraqi lands. He expresses the league's rejection of this action and all pretexts for this action under the veil of Kurdish Workers' party in north of Iraq or under the name of security.
