Why is the Arab League willing to tolerate a terror group’s presence in northern Iraq?
Since the 1980s, Turkey has targeted PKK groups many times in northern Iraq with its cross-border operations, which have also been at times supported by Iraq’s Kurdish Regional Government .
The Arab League statement could have more to do with the recently developing relations between the PKK and some Arab states like Egypt, the UAE and Saudi Arabia, countries that claim to fight with extremist groups, despite forging their own ties with groups like the PKK and its Syrian wing, YPG. from the Turkish National Intelligence Agency suggested that Egyptian officials met with PKK representatives several times, promising the group political and military support.
Ankara demanded that Aboul Gheit, a former Egyptian foreign minister and a diplomat, pay more attention to what the PKK has done in the past across Turkish territories.
