Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Sunday (January 21st) that his country would not back down the Afrin operation, which targets Kurdish forces in northern Syria.
“We will not step back from the Afrin operation in northern Syria,” he said, adding that he expected the operation to end in a short time.
“Now I see how the PKK and the Kurdish people’s protection units are fleeing. They will flee and we will continue to chase them.”
Erdogan also threatened to pursue supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party in the event of demonstrations against the operation of Afrin in northern Syria.
