The State Department called on Iraqi Kurdistan and Baghdad to avoid provocations

30
On Monday, the US State Department called on the authorities of Iraq and the Kurdish autonomy to avoid provocations and coordinate the actions of the military in the province of Kirkuk, reports RIA News.



The United States is very concerned about reports of violence in the Kirkuk area in Iraq. We are closely monitoring the situation and urge all parties to coordinate military action and restore calm,
said in a statement.

We urge all parties to avoid provocations that can be used by Iraq’s enemies who are interested in inciting ethnic and religious hatred. In particular, we note that much remains to be done in order to defeat the IS (the group is banned in the Russian Federation) in Iraq, and the continuing tension between Iraqi and Kurdish forces distracts from this vital mission,
noted in the State Department.

Earlier, the channel “As-Sumariya” reported that the militants of the IG on Monday evening captured two villages north-west of the city of Kirkuk. According to experts, the radicals took advantage of the conflict between the Kurds and the Iraqi army.

Recall, on Monday morning, the Iraqi army launched an operation to regain control of the province of Kirkuk. During the clashes, 17 Kurds were killed, and 64 were injured.

        Let them fight! The stronger the Kurds snatch, the less they will come to Syria in the form of help!
        But let the forces be protected against the Turks! I am not bloodthirsty, the situation contributes ...

      Maladin, pin ... Americans! And the bomb on Hiroshima from Nagasaki was dropped solely out of philanthropy and mercy, because a little more and terrible Uncle Joe would have reached them ...! And in general, the Japanese themselves are to blame ... And Yugoslavia was bombed by Miloshovich himself, and Hussein, who committed suicide, tormented by torment of conscience ...laughing

      Tricky feint with ears: they made the porridge themselves, and then once - and expressed "concern", and it seems like they are not at work, and everyone should believe them. Clumsy work from impunity and permissiveness.

      It’s just not funny for them. Having broken off with their Assad must leave, they understand that they can gain a foothold in the region by relying on the Kurds to create Kurdistan. And not just to gain a foothold, but to become a bone in the throat for all countries in the region. And then someone "sways" their support ....

          The fact of the matter is that sometimes a hand-held animal gets out of control of the owner. It’s good that this is a hamster, and not a bear or a tiger that has grown up in an aviary. Now the mattresses will begin to drive the rebellious animal into a stall.

    States are concerned ... Nu-nu! "A jackal will always eat dead meat. A wolf will always protect its wolf cubs. A bear can tear apart the last. And only a person is a smaller creature in nature, never thinks about his destiny. And this biological creature will never understand the correctness of nature’s choice in that that man was simply unnecessary. " Speech of Norber (Sweden) at the presentation of the Stalker Prize (1936) for studying the need for humanity on the planet. Do you need states?

    The United States itself armed the Kurds and set them against the Iraqi government, thinking that they would be a counterbalance to the influence of Russia and Iran in the region, however, at the first defeats of the Kurds, they simply abandoned them. The United States will do the same to Syria if the local Kurds want independence.
    By the way, it turns out the reason why, in particular, local Israeli Jews "drowned" so much for independent Kurdistan on our website (and not only ours) and recall, for example, a statement by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu who supported the Kurdish state with two hands.
    But what is such support by Israel for an independent Kurdish state and the reason, as always, is the shekels of the dollar, euro and oil.
    Kirkuk Haifa oil pipeline.

      The United States is just moving aside. This is a traitor country. They betray everyone who relied on them.
      And in the meantime:
      Reuters: Yezidi troops occupy Sinjar after leaving Kurdish formations
      Armed units of the Yezidi religious community occupied the city of Sinjar in the province of Ninewa in northern Iraq. This happened after the Kurdish paramilitary groups of the Peshmerga left it, Reuters reported on Tuesday, citing residents of Sinjar.
      According to the agency, the Yezidi forces that took control of this city are associated with the Shiite militia, operating under the auspices of the government forces of Iraq. The city of Sinjar in the province of Ninewa is a place of compact residence of Yezidi Kurds.

            They are nobody and they can’t be called in any way, even they didn’t get someone else’s flag in battle, but steal it quietly. After the Vietnamese lesson, only Iraq and Afghanistan can attack openly.
