Turkey Plans To Enter Syria’s Areas East Of Euphrates As Soon As Possible: Foreign Minister

The news agency TASS reports (source):

Ankara plans to enter Syria’s areas east of the Euphrates River as soon as possible, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said on Tuesday.

“If Turkey says that it will enter Syria, it will be so. We will coordinate the troop withdrawal with the United States. We plan to enter areas east of the Euphrates River as soon as possible,” he said, as cited by the TRT TV channel.

According to Cavusoglu, Turkey “is working to make sure there is no vacuum after the United States pulls out of Syria, which terrorist groups will be eager to fill.”

Turkish Presidential Spokesman Ibrahim Kalin said earlier that Ankara “will coordinate its actions east of the Euphrates River with Russia.”

On December 12, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced plans to launch an operation against the Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) and the Democratic Union Party (PYD) on the east bank of the Euphrates, that Ankara believes to be branches of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party. Turkey already carried out two military operations in Syria dubbed Olive Branch and Euphrates Shield. As a result, a buffer zone was created between the border towns of Jarabulus and Azaz, while Turkey seized the Kurdish-populated Afrin region.

Erdogan said at a press conference following the G20 summit in Argentina that Ankara would soon clear areas east of the Euphrates River of terrorist units.

Doesnt look good for the traitors. Backstabbing their host in Turkey who let them into the parliament, backstabbing their host Assad who let them rule their own and gave them protection, backstabbing Iran who let them live their nomad life.

Willing Conscience (The Truths

The Russians and the SAA are already filling the vacuum, starting from the south and heading north, and with Kurdish cooperation too I might add.
