“Kerry said YPG is not trustworthy”
Çavuşoğlu stated that John Kerry told him People’s Protection Units (YPG) is not trustworthy.
Çavuşoğlu pointing out to US’ discrepancy as to Democratic Union Party (PYD) said, “It is very wrong to rely on a terror organization in a fight against another terror organization”.
“The terror organization [PYD) has started to sell out the US too in the terrain. It has opened its office in Moscow”.
Çavuşoğlu noting Turkey’s stance hasn’t changed in terms of fight against Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) in Syria remarked, “We’ve advocated from the beginning that all sorts of land assaults and strategies in addition to aerial operation should be put into practice”.
