According to the Voice of America daily, Carter making holding a speech in the Senate Armed Services Commission has demanded Turkey to put more effort in controlling its Syrian border which he defined as “often porous” and criticized Saudi Arabia and Gulf States that they have concentrated on the war and thus paid less attention on the struggle against ISIS.
