Turkish President Erdoğan and Southern Kurdistan intelligence official Masrour Barzani will be visiting the US on the same date.
Turkish President Tayyip Erdoğan is expected to visit the US on May 16, while KDP President Masoud Barzani’s son and Southern Kurdistan intelligence official Masrour Barzani has been reported to have a visit on the same date.
Barzani is going to attend a program organized by a right-wing organization called the Heritage Foundation. Barzani will also be meeting with US officials to discuss the Mosul operation and the situation in Southern Kurdistan.
Erdoğan’s US visit will be focused around seeking support for their anti-Kurdish and anti-Rojava stance. Turkey had protested US President Donald Trump approving a plan that foresees providing the Syrian Democratic Forces with heavy weapons before Erdoğan’s visit last week.
It is unclear whether Erdoğan and Barzani will have a meeting in the US.
There is no mention of Syrian Kurds there. They are "occupied" liberating Raqqa from ISIS.
“I did not know, until this very day, that it was Barzani all along.” (Said with the raspy Godfather slur.)
Trolling the Red Bear?
only took two posts LOL
I don’t know that it is Barzani. But Barzani has oil projects with Turkey.
There are 2 tribal factions in Iraq. Barzani and Talibani. They are very different.
I guess I am slow, did not follow what you meant.
Turkey/Iraq Ping
"We're not communists."
No worries. I should have posted the following:
Trolling Russia.
Do you really think it is an accident for them both to be in DC on the same day. Barzani’s son is intelligence officer. I’m sure he is connected with MIT in Turkey.
All Kurds are not the same.
Oil connections between Barzani and Erdogan coincide with Erdogan’s obsession with Neo Ottoman ambitions. He truly believes he is destined to rule it and the world.
Erdogan is incompatible with NATO purposes and with those who love freedom. As long as he is in power in NATO it will be disaster for Turkey, ME, NATO and the world. Erdogan is an admitted Islamist and surrounds himself with Jihadi vermin. I can show you how bad. But won’t here.
Astute observations.
Also, it would appear Erdogan is to ISIS what Obama was to illegals here: Catch and release.
Where are Sollozzo and Tattaglia?
E-Dog says to B.Z.; “This country (Turkey) ain’t big enough for the two of us. Stay in your lane, Bro.!”
Barzani is Tribal, ErDOGan is an Islamist. Both Muslim, but not same faction.
Barzani was once balanced by Talabani. Not so much now.
Tribal? Not same as Mafia. But similar.
NO, the mafia has never been Communist.
Yes, that is a revealed statement. Have a number of documents supporting that.
Barzani and Erdogan have oil business agreements.
He often acts in his own interest as opposed to the interests of Iraq Kurds. The way of the ME.
Great picture. Erdogan is in a position every capo di tutti capi ever dreamed of!
The only reason I checked this post was to see if anyone made a Godfather reference!
