WASHINGTON: President George W. Bush offered the Turkish prime minister additional help on Monday in containing Iraq-based Kurdish militants, part of a last-ditch U.S. attempt to deter a threatened attack by Turkish troops massed at the border.
"I made it very clear to the prime minister that we want to work in a close way to deal with this problem," Bush said after his Oval Office meeting with Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan."
