Five European UNSC members urge Turkey to halt its military operation in Syria
UNITED NATIONS, Oct 10 (APP):The five European members of the U.N. Security Council Thursday urged Turkey to halt its military operation against Syrian Kurdish forces aimed at eliminating what Ankara calls a “terror corridor” on the country’s southern border.
“We are deeply concerned by the Turkish military operation in northeast Syria,” the countries — France, Germany, Britain, Belgium and Poland — said in a joint statement after an emergency meeting of the 15-member Council.
“We call upon Turkey to cease the unilateral military action as we do not believe it will address Turkey’s underlying security concerns,” they said.
