US President Joe Biden sent a letter to Nancy Pelosi condemns Turkey’s stance on Syria and links it directly to Islamic State jihadists, saying Turkey is undermining peace and threats US national security.
“The situation in and in relation to Syria, and in particular the actions by the Government of Turkey to conduct a military offensive into northeast Syria, undermines the campaign to defeat the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, or ISIS, endangers civilians, and further threatens to undermine the peace, security, and stability in the region, and continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States. Therefore, I have determined that it is necessary to continue the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13894 with respect to the situation in and in relation to Syria.” Biden said according to the US White House
This unusual letter by Biden to the President of the US Congress, together with the Greek-French agreement, is expected to create headaches in Turkey.
