Erdogan vows to respond to Syrian Army attacks on Turkish troops in Idlib
2019-06-15
[ALMASDARNEWS] During a presser at Ataturk International Airport in Istanbul, Ottoman Turkish President Recep Tayyip stated that his armed forces will retaliate if the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) continues its attacks on the Ottoman Turkish observation posts in Idlib.

"The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...Qatar's colony in Asia Minor...
will not remain silent if the Syrian regime continues to attack observation points in Idlib," Erdogan said.

The Ottoman Turkish military currently has 12 observation points in northwestern Syria. The Syrian Arab Army has accused the Ottoman Turkish military of using these observation posts to block their advance in northwestern Syria.

In regards to the situation in Manbij, Erdogan claimed the U.S. did not fulfill its promises to expel the Kurdish-led People’s Protection Units (YPG) from the town; however, he said they will continue with his nation’s plans there.

"Our partner, the U.S., did not keep its promise on Manbij [...] However,
Caliphornia hasn't yet slid into the ocean, no matter how hard it's tried...
it doesn’t mean that we give up on the Manbij issue, we keep all our plans and we will continue to do."

Erdogan is scheduled to meet with Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin
...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances...
in Japan later this month; they will likely discuss the ongoing situation in northwestern Syria.
