Επιθετικός Ερντογάν προς ΗΠΑ: "Υποστηρίξτε εμάς που είμαστε στο ΝΑΤΟ, όχι τους τρομοκράτες του ISIS"

‘Support your NATO ally, not terrorists’, είπε ο Τούρκος, που χοντραίνει πολύ το παιχνίδι με τις ΗΠΑ -(για όσους χαίρονται: το ξανάκαναν πολλές φορές οι Τούρκοι, αλλά οι Αμερικανοί τους έγλειφαν να μείνουν στο πλευρό τους, παρά τη ....
δυσαρέσκεια. Οι ΗΠΑ τρέμουν να μην φύγει από τη Δύση η Τουρκία και "κολλήσει" στη Ρωσία. Για αυτό η Τουρκία είναι το χαϊδεμένο παιδί των Αμερικανών, ενώ η δεδομένη Ελλάδα, δεν τυγχάνει καμίας προσοχής και είναι απλά ένας ασήμαντος καρπαζοεισπράχτορας).


Για μια ακόμη φορά, ο Ερντογάν κατηγόρησε τις ΗΠΑ ότι υποστηρίζουν τους τρομοκράτες Τζιχαντιστές στη Συρία. "Είμαστε σύμμαχοι στο ΝΑΤΟ. Πώς διάολο γίνεται να υποστηρίζουν τρομοκρατικές οργανώσεις κι όχι εμάς; Είναι αυτοί οι τρομοκράτες, μέλη του ΝΑΤΟ;", αναρωτήθηκε ο Ερντογάν σε ομιλία του.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has once again accused the US of “supporting terrorists” in Syria. The leader said Washington should instead be supporting Turkey, as it is a fellow member of NATO.
“We are your NATO ally. How on Earth can you support terrorist organizations and not us? Are these terrorist organizations your NATO allies?” Erdogan said during a speech at the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TÜBİTAK) awards in Ankara on Thursday, as quoted by Anadolu news agency. “This is unacceptable.”

He said that although Turkey has been calling on Western countries not to make any distinctions among terrorist organizations, “some countries, primarily the United States, have been supporting the terrorist organizations who massacre the innocent in the region,” Turkish Minute reported.

Erdogan went on to warn that such terrorist organizations will also “eventually attack the nations that support them.”

The president's statements aligned with those made by Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu, who said on Thursday that it is “clearly known” that the US had fed supplies to the Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG), which Ankara considers to be a terrorist group.

Erdogan's remarks come just two days after the leader said it is “very clear” the US-led coalition is supporting terrorist groups in Syria, including Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL), citing “confirmed evidence.”

US State Department spokesman Mark Toner said the claim that Washington is supporting IS is “ludicrous,” but stated that it has been “supporting” the YPG and “other forces.”

“We're mindful, of course, of some of the tensions that exist obviously between these Turkish-supported forces and the YPG and other forces that we've been supporting in that area, and those are tensions – again, that's the reason why we're working closely, having these discussions, and trying to coordinate with them,” Toner said during a Tuesday press briefing.
