Paragraph 7
7. Calls on the countries in the region to refrain from exporting arms or combatants or intervening militarily in other countries, as such interventions are some of the main causes of regional destabilisation; in this regard, strongly condemns Turkey’s ongoing violations of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Iraq through the regular and illegal air strikes causing civilian deaths, notably in Sinjar region, and building up an illegal military and intelligence presence in the Nineveh province (through the base in Bashiqa); deplores the profoundly destabilizing effects of these Turkish actions on the security and humanitarian situation in the region; calls on Turkey to immediately cease these activities, end its military presence in Iraq and commit itself fully to the respect of the international law, the sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of Iraq, and the right of all its ethnic and religious groups to live in peace, security, and democracy; condemns the persistent pattern of the use by Turkey of extremist mercenaries, including those associated with the UN Security Council-designated terrorist organizations, to advance its expansionist foreign policy and military goals, notably in Libya, Syria and South Caucasus; firmly opposes the use of drones in extrajudicial and extraterritorial killings of terror suspects and demands a ban on the use of drones for this purpose;
