Ankara has warned Washington about possible measures against the self-defense forces of Syrian Kurds, if they do not leave the Syrian city of Manbij, Turkey’s foreign minister said Tuesday.
"As the PKK [Kurdistan Workers' Party] does not represent Turkish Kurds, the self-defense forces do not represent the Syrian Kurds. If they do not leave Manbij to the East of the Euphrates, then let the United States not take offense", Mevlut Cavusoglu told the Kanal 24 TV channel.
On August 24, Turkish forces, backed by US-led coalition aircraft, began a military operation dubbed Euphrates Shield aimed at freeing the territory of 1,931 square miles from terrorists and creating security zones for accommodation of refugees.
