Reuters - The United States is working against the interests of Turkey, Iran and maybe Russia in northern Syria, where it is sending in military supplies to an area controlled by Kurdish-dominated forces, President Tayyip Erdogan said on Tuesday.
If the United States says they are sending 5,000 trucks and 2,000 cargo planes of weapons for the fight against Daesh (Islamic State), we dont believe this, Erdogan told members of his ruling AK Party in parliament.
It means you have calculations against Turkey and Iran, and maybe Russia, he said, repeating a call for U.S. troops to withdraw from the Syrian town of Manbij.
