Erdogan warns of 'plan B' over Mosul offensive

ANKARA, , (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 14th Oct, 2016 ) - President Recep Tayyip Erdogan threatened on Friday to resort to a "plan B" if Turkey's forces do not take part in the planned major US-backed offensive by the Iraqi army to free Mosul from militants.

"We are determined to take our place among the coalition forces in Iraq for Iraq's unity. If the coalition forces do not want Turkey, we will engage a plan B. If that doesn't work, we will engage plan C," Erdogan said during a speech in the Anatolian city of Konya. He did not expand on what either plan "B" or plan "C" could entail.
