Erdogan promises to support US in war against Assad
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said he would support a US military operation in Syria against the country’s President Bashar Assad, according to western media.
“If the matter comes to practical realization, then we are ready to do anything that will be necessary,” he said.
Erdoğan added that he had talked with Russian President Vladimir Putin about the chemical attack in Syria, but he did not receive a clear answer about whether Assad had been involved in the action.
Before this, the media reported that Trump is considering military action against Assad. The reason for this is a chemical attack in Syria, for which the US accused the Syrian president. Seventy-two people were killed, including 20 children.
Turkey confirmed that chemical weapons were used in Syria.
