ANKARA, TURKEY: (FILES) A file photo taken in November 2001 shows US airforce tanker planes lining to take off from the Incirlik Airbase, southern Turkey, for a daily patrolling mission over Northern Iraq and Afghanistan. The United States would like to use a key Turkish air base to provide logistical support for its troops deployed in Iraq, the head of the US Central Command said 11 January 2005. The Incirlik base, in southern Turkey, "is a Turkish base, not an American base. We look forward to use the facilities there as an ally," General John Abizaid told reporters after talks with Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul.
