Time hasn't come to allow Peshmerga enter Kobane from Turkey - FM

ANKARA, Oct 21 (KUNA) -- Turkey said Tuesday time has not yet come to allow Iraqi Kurdistan region's Peshmerga forces to enter the Syrian Ain Al-Arab (Kobane) town through Turkish territories, to fight the Islamic State in Iraq and Levant (ISIL).
"Negotiations (over the entry of Peshmerga) are ongoing and we still don't know the method in which Peshmerga will be transported to Kobane whether it is by ground or air," Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said in an interview with a local media outlet.
He said the opposition Free Syrian Army (FSA) deserved the support and the Kurdish Democratic Party (KDP) should coordinate with FSA for the sake of Syria. (end) rs.bs
