Turkish Mps To Debate Iraq, Syria Motions

Turkish MPs on Thursday will debate two motions regarding the deployment of troops to Syria and Iraq.



Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will also make his first inaugural speech in the Turkish Parliament at 3 pm on Wednesday, to mark the ending of the summer recess. 



There are current motions on Syria and Iraq. One of them is against the outlawed PKK based in northern Iraq and another against a potential Syrian threat toward Turkey. 



However, it is not clear whether the new motions will differ from the current motions on Syria and Iraq. 



Parliament sessions will be delayed from October 2 to October 14, because of the Eid al-Adha (Feast of Sacrifice).
