Türkiye has the capacity, power, and determination to eliminate all threats to its existence at their source,” said the country's Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan.
Türkiye has capacity, power and “most importantly, determination” to eliminate all threats to its existence “at their source,” said Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Friday, referring to the PKK/YPG terrorist organizations.
The end of the road is now in sight for the PKK/YPG terror group and its affiliates in Syria, Fidan told reporters.
“We have said it repeatedly. We cannot live with such a threat (from the PKK/YPG). Either someone else will take action, or we will,” he added.
On France’s remarks came during US State Secretary visit to Paris, Fidan said that Türkiye ignores countries that attempt to further their own interests in Syria by using US’ power.
“We frankly don't take into account countries (like France) that try to advance their own interests in Syria by using US power, hiding behind it,” he added.
On the ongoing genocidal war in Palestinian lands, Fidan said that leaving Palestinians landless and stateless is “absolutely unacceptable.”
