Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned that if Turkish soldiers are hit by Damascus forces again, the retaliation will not be limited to the Idlib area. He also discussed Syrian peace process in a phone call with Vladimir Putin.


The Turkish leader made his comments during a speech in the nation’s parliament on Wednesday.  



I announce that we will strike the [Syrian] regime force everywhere starting from today, without being bound to Idlib and by the Sochi Memorandum, if our soldiers at the lookout posts or elsewhere suffer even the least amount of damage.
