Turkey calls on US to join in ground offensive in Syria to defeat Isis and end civil war
Turkey has called on the US and other members of the international coalition in Syria to join in a ground offensive and “stop this war”.
Speaking amid speculation that Turkey was preparing troops to enter Syria from the north over the weekend, Ankara said it refused to take action on its own.
But an official briefing reporters in Istanbul said “we want a ground operation”, adding that “if there is a consensus, Turkey will take part”.
