ISTANBUL - Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said on Saturday that he had asked President Vladimir Putin for Russia to step aside in Syria and leave Turkey to deal with Syrian government forces alone, after 34 Turkish soldiers were killed this week.

Turkish strikes using drones and smart missiles late on Friday that hit Hezbollah headquarters near Saraqeb killed nine of its members and wounded 30 in one of the bloodiest attacks on the Iran-backed group in Syria, according to a commander in the regional alliance backing Damascus. “We did not go there because we were invited by . We went there because we were invited by the people of Syria. We don’t intend to leave before the people of Syria say, ‘Okay, this is done,’” Erdogan added.

Violence in the northwestern Syrian province has displaced one million civilians since December inside the country near the Turkish border in desperate winter conditions, in what is perhaps the worst humanitarian crisis of the conflict.

The murdering Islamist Dictator of Turkey who invaded Syria wants The murdering Dictator of Russia to give him Syria? Russia already killed over 50 Turkish soldiers. Putin must be laughing his as* off. Erdogan spit on USA/NATO to kiss Putin’s as*! Let Putin/Erdogan fight.

CaliphErdogan thinks he can bully his master Putin into turning against his 1st love Bashir Al-Assad That ain’t gonna work mate He’s not like BarackObama or Queen_Europe or EmmanuelMacron The blackmail of EU🇪🇺 can work though bcos they’re gutless

Actually he didn't and Russia would have just laughed.

What does Erdogan want in Syria? Why can't he go home and secure his country? Border not about Assad.

Best idea is for all of you to leave Syria to the Syrians!

😂😂😂😂😂 good luck with that

Turkey has started a rightful operation against Syrian Regime to protect its borders after the vicious attacks by Syrian Regime against civilians in Turkey controlled zones. Turkey has opened its doors to Europe for 72 hours. All immigrants are free to pass!

How about you step aside in Turkey?

He bought anti-missile batteries from Russia that NATO said he shouldn't, and he defied them. Trouble in paradise?

Because Turkish troops are massing up on national Syrian territory? Some logic! What would Turkey say if Greece invaded her and occupied İstanbul reclaiming millenia-old Greek lands TurkeyGoHome

Erdogan has got lot of money from Middle East in the name of settling migrants and lot from Europe for not letting them in their other countries. Now finding a reason to let them transfer to other European countries. Old tactics. Foolish Europeans

Turkey must leave Syria. Otherwise there would be no PEACE. Syria has the right, to get its territory back!

How about u all step aside. When has meddling in other country’s problem in the ME ever ended well for anyone especially the locals?

What a joke !!!!

Sure erdo...

Russia murdered Turkish soldiers & humiliated Turkey & The Dictator Erdogan. Everyone is watching Erdogan cower in front of Putin. He won’t do anything except get more Turkish soldiers slaughtered like sheep while Putin laughs. CNNPolitics foxnewspolitics cnni BBCWorld

By March we'll know whether Erdogan has the stones to muscle-up to Putin.

I demand everybody to step out off this planet. This planet is mine.

That was wrong step for Turkey to attack Suriah army's in their country. Whatever Erdogan reasons he should bring back his army back.

Why the heck is Sultan Erdogan involved in Syria ?...So he can occupy northern Syria and eliminate all the Kurds ?

Are we having a Turkish version of comical Ali?

sure , just don't use refuges are a bio-weapon dumba$$

There are no rebels backed by Turkey. There are AlQaeda and ISIS terrorists backed by Turkey.

Erdogan: Pull your ships and troops out! Putin and Assad: 👇🤣

Is a crazy and......

I think we all know well that Russia will not stand down in Syria.

LOL

Turkey saved 5 million syrian citizens, and that is 30% of the population of Syria. Plus Assad can't control groups like YPG from spreading terror. So Turkey has all the rights to secure northern Syria, not Russia, because it belongs to Syrians in Turkey not Assad nor Putin

🤣🤣🤣 Best joke of today

clusterfuck

So Erdogan could send terrorists unchecked? I dont think so!

FreeCrimea FreeChechnya FreeDagestan People of these regions should rise up at all cost to take back what's theirs by birth right. Russian race did not even exist 800 years ago. These land belongs to its captive indigenous people. Rise up and take what's yours at all cost!

Hepsinin amına koyacak reis

Best of luck with that Mr Erdogan

What? Did I read that right?
