ANKARA, Aug 3 (Reuters) - Turkey urged the United States and Iraq on Wednesday to shut down an office in the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk it says is linked to the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), a banned Turkish Kurdish guerrilla group.
Turkish newspapers have in recent days carried photographs of the building, adorned with a PKK flag, in oil-rich Kirkuk. Some papers say the PKK has offices in other Iraqi cities too."
