Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said the PKK terrorist group's members in the YPG must leave Syria as the country tries to form a new, unified administration, which he said needs to be inclusive and tolerant, APA reports citing Daily Sabah.
"Elimination of YPG is Türkiye's strategic goal," Fidan told a live broadcast on NTV channel Friday. He highlighted that the PKK's Syrian offshoots have no place in the country's future while noting that the safety of the Kurdish population must be ensured.
"Türkiye always foresaw risks in Syria but the Assad regime disregarded political processes that Ankara proposed to launch," Fidan said.
