ANKARA - Turkey is determined to clear its border with Syria of militants and assure the security of the country, Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said on Monday, after the White House said Ankara will soon launch an offensive into northern Syria. On Sunday, the White House press secretary said Turkey will soon move forward with its long-planned military operation to create what it calls a “safe zone” in northern Syria and U.S. forces will not support or be involved in it.
“Since the beginning of the crisis in Syria, we supported the country’s territorial integrity, and we will continue to do so from now on,” Cavusoglu said. “We will contribute to peace and stability in Syria,” he said in a tweet.
Arms for Dirt shakedown ... now trump Distraction for Putin.
YPG has released ISIS militants in Tel Abyad to fight against Turkey
'assure security.' Funny way to say 'commit war crimes and genocide.'
Very ungood
It wouldn’t be the first time Turkey has committed a genocide. Armenians first and next it will be the Kurds. Guarantee the international community will do nothing when it happens.
I hope the Kurds beat Turkey. The Kurds deserve a homeland and the West help to achieve that goal. Hopefully Western Governments will send advanced weapons, aid and money to the Kurds. BorisJohnson realDonaldTrump usa uk
Turkey has right to protect its sovereignty and ease the burden of migrants
Turkey paid its share alot. Not like other European countries that sat and talked. They are hosting refugees nearly the same population of Norway.
You mean Turkey is determined to commit genocide. Congrats on supporting fascists by your cowardice
They mean the Kurds
Never trust America - even if you shed blood for them. Kurds
AKA Murder our Kurdish allies.
Translation: kill as many Kurds as possible. Turkey Genocide Peshmerga
Well, how do you clear-off all the muzzies in the geography?
Clear - ethnic cleansing
Translation: Destroy Syrian Democratic Forces in Northern Syria that have successfully fought ISIS
