President Tayyip Erdoğan said Monday that Türkiye is advising Syrian authorities to help de-escalate tensions, while welcoming interim Syrian President Ahmed Sharaa’s commitment to punishing those responsible for the violence.
Erdoğan praised Sharaa’s inclusive approach, saying it avoids revanchism and could stabilize Syria. His remarks come as clashes between Assad loyalists and Syria’s new rulers continue, killing over 1,000 people in Assad’s former stronghold, according to a war monitoring group.
Türkiye, a key supporter of Sharaa, has condemned the violence, but domestic pressure is growing. The Republican People’s Party (CHP) called for an international peacekeeping force in western Syria if Ankara fails to ensure civilian safety.
Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, during a visit to Jordan over the weekend, said Türkiye remains committed to assisting Syria’s government and backing stabilization efforts. However, the CHP has urged stronger diplomatic initiatives, warning that further escalation poses a major risk to Türkiye.
Meanwhile, Türkiye’s Alevi community held protests in Istanbul and Ankara, expressing concern over sectarian violence in Syria.
Erdoğan’s ruling AK Party warned of "sectarian and ethnic provocations" by proxy groups, as tensions in Syria risk destabilizing the region.
