Ankara claimed; The air operation in northern Syria was carried out with the coordination of Moscow

According to Fars International News Agency, “Ibrahim Kalin”, the spokesman of the Turkish presidential office, claimed today (Tuesday, November 29) that Ankara has coordinated its actions with Russia during air operations in northern Syria and Iraq.

In an interview with “A Haber” channel, he claimed that the issues related to Turkey’s plans in the air force operations of this country have been discussed and disputed with the Russian side.

The spokesperson of the office of the President of Turkey, emphasizing the necessary coordination with Russia, raised this question: “Then how did we enter the airspace of Tal Rafat?” In this regard with [روسیه ] We argued and coordinated our work. We plan, then debate and coordinate and finally act.”

In another part of his speech, Kalin said that ground operations in northern Syria against terrorist organizations may begin at any moment. Turkey wants the SDF forces to move away from its borders up to 30 kilometers.

At the same time, the presidential spokesman added: “Military operations in northern Syria must preserve the territorial integrity of Syria.” This military operation can be carried out in several ways, and it is Ankara that will determine the time and manner of its implementation. “We don’t need anyone’s permission to address our security concerns.”

Since November 20, Turkey has started air operations against the forces of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party of Iraq (PKK) in northern Iraq and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) allied with the United States in northern Syria.
