Turkey expects creation of Syria security zone in few months, Erdogan says
Tehran (KNA) - Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan says the Ankara government expects a “security zone” to be created in neighboring Syria within a few months as the United States withdraws its troops from the war-torn Arab country.
"The zone should be aimed at protecting our country from terrorists not protecting terrorists right beside our border, and should be established within a few months," Erdogan said n a speech in Turkey's eastern province of Erzurum on Friday.
"Otherwise, we will definitely form this safe or buffer zone ourselves. Our only expectation from our allies is that they provide logistical support to Turkey's effort," he added.
