US Vice President Joe Biden said that Washington recognizes the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) is as much of a threat to Turkey as ISIS. Speaking alongside the Turkish prime minister during a press conference in Istanbul, Biden voiced his support for a Turkish crackdown, saying Kurdish militants and IS are ‘terror groups plain and simple’ He told reporters that ISIS was “not the only existential threat to the people of Turkey, the PKK is equally a threat and we are aware of that” Turkey has however been criticised over its campaign against Kurdish militants.

Angela Merkel has delivered President Vladimir Putin an extraordinary, strongly worded warning: ‘You are making a big mistake going rogue from the New World Order – come into the fold before it’s too late.’ Merkel is getting ‘more and more exasperated’ with the ‘reckless behaviour’ of President Putin, to the point where she felt it necessary to instruct Rudiger von Fritsch, the German Ambassador to the Russian Federation, to pass on her strongly worded threat. It is understood Putin prefers not to take direct personal telephone calls from Merkel, hence her use of von Fritsch as messenger.

While he may well be correct in his statement, we suspect the mainstream media will have a field day with this one as the Iowa and New Hampshire caucuses loom.
