MESOPOTAMIA NEWS : Turkey Welcomes Western Strikes on Syrian Regime

BasNews 14/04/2018 – 10:39 ERBIL – Turkey has welcomed the airstrikes carried out by the US and its allies UK and France early on Saturday against the Syrian regime in retaliation to a poison gas attack which killed dozens of civilians last week.”We welcome this operation which has eased the humanity’s conscience in the face of the attack in Douma, largely suspected to have been carried out by the regime,” Turkish Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

The statement came after the three western countries conducted airstrikes on the Syrian government, targeting military weapons storages.

“The Syrian regime, which has been tyrannizing its own people for more than seven years be it with conventional or chemical weapons, has a proven track record or crimes against humanity and war crimes. The conscience of the international community carries no doubt to that effect,” the statement added. www.mesop.de
