Turkey’s Olive Branch operation in Afrin is not directed against the Kurds, Turkish Ambassador to Georgia Fatma Ceren Yazgan said at a press conference in Tbilisi on Jan. 25, APA’s Georgian bureau reported.
The ambassador said the aim of the Olive Branch operation is to prevent threats near Turkey’s boundaries.
“These operations meet norms of international law. Military operations will be conducted until terrorism threat is eliminated. They also support the territorial integrity of Syria,” Yazgan noted.
