Turkey may take 'steps' after Syria deadline
2012-04-08
ANKARA, Turkey: Turkey's prime minister says the country will wait "patiently" to see if Syria abides by a cease-fire deadline, but may take certain "steps" if the violence does not stop after that.
How fascinating! I wonder what they will do, given the top ranks of the military are now languishing in jail. Are the middle ranks ready to take over and execute whatever bright ideas Prime Minister Erdogan might have?
Recep Tayyip Erdogan did not specify Saturday what measures Turkey would take. But Ankara has in the past floated the idea of creating a buffer zone inside Syria if refugee flows become overwhelming.
