Turkey warned by US, Europe not to invade Iraq
'Belgian Foreign Minister Louis Michel said on Sunday it would be "unthinkable" to allow Turkey to join the European Union if Ankara defied U.S. and NATO leaders and sent its forces into northern Iraq... Reports of a Turkish incursion sparked a quick reaction from NATO member Germany, which said it would withdraw its crews from the alliance's AWACS surveillance planes patrolling Turkish airspace if Ankara became a belligerent force in northern Iraq.'
