(CNN)A deal has been reached for 200 Iraqi Kurdish Peshmerga forces to pass through Turkey to help Syrian Kurdish fighters in the besieged town of Kobani, just over the border in Syria, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Thursday. The Syrian Kurdish fighters had originally declined the deployment of Peshmerga troops, but Erdogan told reporters in Riga, Latvia, that he'd learned Wednesday that an agreement for the reinforcement force had been reached. However, an aide to the minister for Peshmerga in Iraq's Kurdish Regional Government told CNN that talks are ongoing. The technical discussions involve four parties -- the United States, Turkey, the Syrian Kurds and the KRG in Iraq -- and decisions on numbers and timing are still a ways off, he said.
