By the way, did you know that voters in the Kurdish region of Iraq also voted in a referendum on independence? It's non-binding, and I don't know how the vote turned out, but I see that Massud Barzani, the leader of Iraq's Kurdistan Democratic Party, has said,

An independent Kurdish state is indeed going to be established, but I do not know when it will be established.

Statements like that make the Turks very cranky.
