Turkish air operation 'just the beginning' — Erdogan
|
[RT] Turkiye’s air operations in northern Iraq and Syria are "just the beginning" and the country may soon launch a ground offensive into Kurdish-controlled areas of Syria, President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
 ...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important...
warned on Wednesday.
In an address to ruling party politicians, Erdogan explained that Turkiye is determined to "close down all of our southern borders... with a security corridor that will prevent the possibility of attacks on our country."
He said the ground incursion will begin "at the most convenient time for us," and will target the regions of Tel Rifaat, Mambij and Kobani, which he called "sources of trouble."
Erdogan also reassured the Iraqi and Syrian governments that Ankara’s operation is not a challenge to their illusory sovereignty or territorial integrity, and stressed that the aim of the operation is to protect the security of Turkiye. If those countries "cannot fulfill the requirements of the agreement, we have the right to take care of it ourselves," he warned.
Retaliatory raids have escalated along the Ottoman Turkish-Syrian border in recent days, with Ankara carrying out a series of air and artillery strikes against targets linked to the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) and the YPG, which it considers to be terrorist organizations and blames for the November 13 kaboom in Istanbul, which claimed the lives of six people and maimed 81 more.
'Battlefield' won't decide Russia-Ukraine conflict — Türkiye
[RT] Russia and Ukraine will inevitably have to sit down at the negotiating table to resolve the ongoing conflict, Turkiye's Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told a conference on Wednesday. Military action won't bring about its end and will only prolong the hostilities, he added.
"One way or another, this war will end at the [negotiating] table," the minister told an audience at Bilkent University in Ankara. "We do not think that it will end through military gains on the ground," he added, warning of a "risk of war that could last for decades."
According to Cavusoglu, Russia and Ukraine were already "very close to a ceasefire" during talks in Istanbul in spring before "moving away" from the negotiating table. The two sides haven’t sat down to negotiate since talks in Istanbul in late March. Moscow was initially optimistic about the prospects for a peace deal but later accused Kiev of torpedoing the talks.
