Turkish forces directly assisted terrorist groups in Syria, Bashar Jaafari, Syria’s envoy to the UN, wrote in a letter to the UN Secretary General and the Security Council.
Jaafari noted that terrorist groups receive backing from regional powers, including “the Erdogan regime,” and other countries.
According to Jaafari, Turkey’s engagement includes “the direct participation of the Erdogan regime’s armed forces in offensive military operations in support of terrorists.” Thus, Ankara has helped terrorists to enter Syria and provided “fire cover” to militants crossing to the country.
Bashar Jaafari added that Erdogan wants to “revive the Ottoman colonial legacy“.
