UNITED NATIONS - Turkey`s Permanent Representation to the U.N. gives routine information to the U.N. Secretariat on matters regarding Turkey, sources said on Tuesday.
Speaking to A.A correspondent about the news reports appeared in some newspapers and web pages, diplomatic sources said Turkey`s permanent representation gave both written and verbal information to U.N. Secretariat General on all matters pertaining to Turkey.
According to the claims of several newspapers, "Ankara started to launch diplomatic initiatives before pushing the button for a military incursion into northern Iraq against terrorist PKK organization, and within this framework Turkey`s Ambassador to the UN Baki Ilkin will submit an official paper to Secretary General Ban-Ki-Moon on PKK terrorism to highlight the right to legitimate defense."
Diplomatic sources said Ilkin does not have an appointment with U.N. Secretary General this week.
