Turkey to launch Syria offensive if US delays troop pullout:Mevlut Cavusoglu

Istanbul: Turkey will go ahead with an offensive against Syrian Kurdish militia forces in Syria if the US delays the withdrawal of troops from the war-torn country, the foreign minister said Thursday.

“If the (withdrawal) is put off with ridiculous excuses like Turks are massacring Kurds, which do not reflect the reality, we will implement this decision,” Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told NTV television.
