ANKARA Ñ Turkey's ruling council has recommended the deployment of
U.S. troops along the border with Iraq.
Turkish officials said that hours after Ankara's decision the United
States began talks with Ankara over the deployment of paratroop units from
the U.S. Army's 82nd Airborne Division. Officials said Washington wants the
paratroopers to arrive in Turkey within 10 days.
On Friday, Turkey's National Security Council recommended that U.S.
troops be deployed in Turkey. The council, chaired by President Ahmet Sezer,
urged for the government to obtain parliamentary approval for the
deployment.
