Erdogan disagrees with agreement between Trump and Putin

I have difficulty understanding these comments. If a military solution is out of the question, then that means they should withdraw their military troops,” said Erdogan.

“If a military approach is not a solution, you need to apply for the political approach and find ways to go to the polls as soon as possible. Has such a method been implemented in the last seven or eight years? We'll even talk to Putin about it. We are the ones who know this region better. We are the ones who know better what has happened in the last 15 years,” he said.

The number of people killed by the Syrian central government's army has already reached a million”, Erdogan said, making an unusual reference to the Syrian regime, which Ankara has argued is illegal, reports “Hurriyet Daily News”, broadcast Periscopi.

Ankara never wanted the US to intervene in Iraq to overthrow Saddam Hussein, where it urged Washington to find solutions through democratic means, he added.

He also complained that the US has established five military bases in northern Syria and is creating another base in Raqqa, besides eight others in the region.

Meanwhile, Russia has five military bases in Syria, he noted.

At the weekend, in a joint statement on Syria, Putin and Trump agreed to “continue joint efforts” for fighting Iraq's Islamic State and the (ISIL) legislature until final defeat.

Moscow and Washington agree that there are no military solutions to the conflict, according to the text of the joint statement published on the Kremlin website.

We signed an agreement. We will discuss some technical issues,” said Erdogan regarding the purchase of the Russian defence system from Turkey./Periscopi/
