BRUSSELS - European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker on Wednesday called Turkey to show restraint and stop its military operation in northeast Syria. “Turkey has security concerns at its border with Syria, that we must understand. However, I call on Turkey, as well as other actors, to act with restraint,” Juncker told EU parliament.

“If the plan involves the creation of a so-called safe zone, don’t expect the EU to pay for any of it.”

The EU will not do anything, as it can cause Erdogan to skip the refugee agreement with EU and Germany is terrified of that.

Drunken master 😂😂

EU is not more effective than Afghanistan in military issues

Why do EU countries not accept their ISIS terrorist citizens and punish them? EU supports terrorists and even forming terrorist organizations such as ISIS!

Always a step behind... Europe: no plan, no vision, let alone a strategy... When you don’t have a plan, you become part of somebody else’s plan...

EU = more inept than the UN.

Time for the EU and the rest of the UN member nations to take over. Let's see how many send in troops to fight and die now that the US has left

I bet Thomas Cook are glad they went down the pan before this kicked off as Turkey is set to become a no go destination for tourists just like Sharm. Wouldn't surprise me if they saw this coming. We've avoided turkey for years now due to its support of religious fanatics.

EU Army.....

Send in the EU JunckerEU lolol

Well what do you expect of a dictator. Stop playing nice with him! No entry in the EU! Don’t let the wolf in!

Stop supporting terror. Turkey never kill civil people. We are working for world peace.

No Juncker we won't stop

ka bo PIJANČEK nardil nč...še veter ga lak odpihne kolk KG ma

EU needs to send troops and munitions to stop the slaughter of the Kurds. The US won't help, Donald cares more about his buildings in Turkey than the death of thousands of our allies.

He needs more wine l guess...

show world power against Erdogan
