Ten years have passed since Assad regime forces responded to peaceful demonstrations by the Syrian people seeking democracy, justice, rights and freedom, said a statement by Turkey’s Foreign Ministry. It added that Turkey’s determination to fight all terror groups that threaten Syria's national security such as Daesh and the YPG/PKK terror group will never falter.

It stressed that Turkey strongly reiterates its call to the international community, especially the UN Security Council, to fulfil their duties and responsibilities to find a permanent political solution to the Syrian conflict, provide assistance to refugees and the neighbouring countries that host them, alleviate the humanitarian crisis, and fight terrorism.
