ErdoÄŸan bashes NATO for not siding with Turkey in Syria
TM

Turkish President Recep Tayyip ErdoÄŸan on Sunday lambasted NATO for not giving support to Turkey, accusing the US of helping terrorist organizations, the state-run Anadolu news agency reported.

“We asked them to fight against terrorist organizations. But they [the US] preferred to be with them [terrorist organizations]. They sent 5,000 truckloads of weapons there [to Syrian Kurdish militant groups]. They sent 2,000 cargo ships of weapons and ammunition. Are we not are friends? Are we not together in NATO?” Erdoğan said during a party meeting in Sakarya province, strongly criticizing American support for the Syrian Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD).

“I repeat: Oh NATO! When are you going to side with us? Are we not members of NATO? You called on us for Afghanistan, we came. You called on us for Somalia, the Balkans, we came. Why? Because we are a NATO member. We fulfilled our promise, but you have not. This is Turkey. This is the Turkish nation,” he added.
