Istanbul, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 21st Dec, 2018 ) :Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Friday promised to clear Syria of a US-backed Kurdish militia and jihadists after the US decision to pull troops out.
"In the next months we will see an operational style aimed at removing YPG (Kurdish People's Protection Units) and Daesh (Islamic State group) elements on the ground in Syria," Erdogan said in Istanbul.
He promised last week to start a Turkish-led operation before US President Donald Trump on Wednesday ordered 2,000 American ground forces to leave Syria.
