Russia and the United States must ensure security on the border with Syria, Ankara expects appropriate steps from Moscow and Washington. This was stated by the representative of the Turkish President Ibrahim Kalyn.

Turkey hopes that the United States will stop supporting terrorist organizations located on Syrian territory, referring to the Kurdish self-defense units opposing the Turkish army. Ankara considers these detachments to be the combat wing of the declared terrorist Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK). It is the Americans' support for the Kurds that is one of the reasons for the bad relations between Ankara and Washington.

The Turks expect Russia to fulfill its obligations under the memorandum of understanding signed in 2019, under which the Russian and Syrian military were to withdraw Kurdish detachments and their weapons beyond the 30-kilometer zone from the Syrian-Turkish border.

We reaffirm our expectations that the United States and Russia will fulfill their obligations arising from the 2019 agreements and clear our borders of terrorism. Our fight against terrorist elements that pose a threat to our national security will resolutely continue until our country and the border region become completely safe

- said Kalyn.

As previously reported, Turkey is ready to conduct a ground operation in northern Syria against the Syrian Kurdish Self-Defense Forces (YPG). Ankara has already asked Moscow to open the airspace over Syria. The task of the ground operation will be to create a 30-kilometer buffer zone along the Turkish border to "eliminate the terrorist threat." According to reports, the Turkish Defense Ministry intends to involve up to 50,000 soldiers and militants of pro-Turkish groups in the operation.
