TIL Desk/World/Washington/ US President Donald Trump has said that he hoped Turkey would “act rationally” as the country launched an operation to invade Kurdish-controlled North Syria. Warning of actions against Turkey’s economy, Trump said that he would consider moves tougher than sanctions if Ankara does not do the operations in northern Syria in as humane a way as possible.
“I will wipe out (Turkey’s) his economy if that happens,” Trump told reporters at the White House when asked if he is concerned that the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will try to wipe out the Kurds. Turkey has launched a broad assault on Kurdish-controlled areas in northeastern Syria, with intensive bombardment paving the way for a ground offensive.
The operation was possible after the White House announced late Sunday that Turkey would soon carry out a military operation in northern Syria and that US troops will no longer be “in the immediate area”. Trump said he hoped Turkey President Erdogan would act rationally in terms of the operation in northern Syria.
