President Recep Tayyip Erdogan gives direct indication of military offensive east of the Euphrates River in Syria to establish safe zone
Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Saturday gave the most direct indication of a military offensive since Ankara and Washington decided to establish a"safe zone" in the region.
This is the most direct indication of a military offensive since Ankara and Washington decided to establish a "safe zone".The NATO allies have agreed to establish a zone on the Syrian border that Turkey says should stretch 30 km into Syria and be cleared of the YPG, the Syrian offshoot of terror group PKK.
"We gave all warnings to our interlocutors regarding the east of Euphrates and we have acted with sufficient patience," Erdogan said. Free Syrian Army forces pledged on Friday to back a potential cross-border offensive that Ankara has threatened to mount against YPG in northeast Syria.
