Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Thursday reaffirmed Ankara’s unwavering support for Syria in its fight against terrorist groups and its southern neighbor's reconstruction, emphasizing that Türkiye is ready to deepen cooperation on security, reconstruction, and regional stability, APA reports citing Daily Sabah.
Speaking after his meeting with Syria’s interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa in Damascus, Fidan said that Türkiye remains committed to standing by the Syrian people and supporting their legitimate aspirations and national will.
“In our discussions, we focused particularly on security issues,” Fidan said in a statement on social media. “We addressed both internal and external threats to Syria’s sovereignty and political unity. As Türkiye, we will continue to support Syria’s efforts against terrorist organizations.”
He also noted that Türkiye is prepared to provide assistance to the Syrian government in managing and securing camps in northeastern Syria—an area of ongoing concern due to the presence of foreign fighters and extremist elements. “We once again underlined our readiness to support the Syrian government in taking on responsibilities regarding the management and security of camps in the northeast,” he added.
