The president said during Bagheri’s visit, joint action against terrorist organizations was discussed.
“Joint action against terrorist groups that have become a threat is always on the agenda. This issue has been discussed between the two military chiefs, and I discussed more broadly how this should be carried out. A more effective fight against the terrorist PKK and PJAK groups is possible through joint action with Iran,” Erdoğan said.
