Today Ralston is to meet with Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul. Though Iraq too is in the process of appointing a coordinator in the struggle against the PKK, there is reportedly no plan for a 3 way meeting between coordinators in Ankara.
In the wake of Ralston's visit to Ankara, Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri El Maliki is expected in the Turkish capital on Monday.
