Türkiye’s sole aim is to ensure peace, tranquility, and stability throughout its region, starting with Syria, the Turkish president said on Wednesday.
Speaking at a meeting of the country’s Justice and Development (AK) Party, Recep Tayyip Erdogan said: “We're delighted whenever we see the free Syrian flag alongside our own crescent and star flag in (the Syrian cities of) Aleppo, Damascus, Hama, Homs, Daraa, and Manbij.”
“After 61 years of oppression, the Baath regime has been overthrown, and the coward (Bashar) Assad, true to his nature, fled Syria, even betraying those closest to him,” Erdogan said, referring to the deposed regime leader.
