Istanbul. May 29. INTERFAX - The Turkish military will be ready to conduct an operation against Kurdish militants in northern Syria, regardless of the US position on this issue, Turkish President Recep Erdogan said on Sunday.

"It is impossible to fight against terrorism if we wait for someone's permission," the European media quoted Erdogan as saying, commenting on the position on this issue to journalists.

"What can we do if the United States does not fulfill its part of the fight against terrorism? We will manage on our own," Erdogan added.

Earlier this week, the US State Department said it was concerned about Ankara's plans to conduct a military operation aimed at creating a "security zone" 30 km deep on the border of Syria with Turkey.
