"Turkish PM refuses to rule out Iraq invasion
Suna Erdem, Istanbul
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the Turkish Prime Minister, today denied any immediate plans to authorise a military invasion in northern Iraq.

Mr Erdogan’s comments came amid growing speculation that massed Turkish troops will make good a threat to move across the border to clamp down on separatist Kurdish rebels who use bases there for attacks into Turkey. "
